I'm using iPhone 6s and after updating iOS 10, the alarms sometimes do not sound at all. It just shows the alarm screen. I've checked sounds, do not disturb, the silent switch, but everything is ok.

I suspect that iOS 10 contains bugs that cause this issue, not the hardware problems. Anyone else having the same issue with this iOS 10 update?

Me and the wife 6S alarms have been fine on iOS 10 and recently iOS 10.1. Have you updates to 10.1? If not do that and see if the issue goes away?

If you have that version already then try a hard reset, hold down both power button and home button together until you see the white Apple logo then release, it will boot up as normal and your done. Not saying it will work but worth a go. Last resort would be backing up the phone in iTunes or iCloud then restoring it. That should be last on your list though as it takes the longest!

I had it a couple of times with iOS 10 on both an iPhone 6 an iPhone 7 where's all sounds stopped working, including alarms, a reboot fixed it.

Hasn't happened on iOS 10.1 yet.

Otherwise, for other users, if upgrading does not work, then you should check the list in this article https://iphonebyte.com/fix-iphone-al...k-not-working/ I saw that all the possible causes listed here, but none of them work for me

For me the issue is still around on 10.1

So when an alarm is triggered the phone will vibrate but no sound, the same for incoming calls.

In app sounds and keypress sounds are always fine.

A reboot will fix the problem for four or five days and then it reoccurs until your phone is rebooted again,

I know of an iPhone 6, 6s and SE all suffering this cycle!

You updated via OTA or iTunes?. If OTA, you should try again using iTunes.
