Set an alarm in Clock on iPhone
You can turn your iPhone into an alarm clock. You can also ask Siri to set an alarm for you. Set alarms for any time of day and have them repeat on one or more days of the week.
Siri: Say something like: “Set an alarm for 7 a.m.” Learn how to use Siri.
Note: You can also set up a wake up alarm as part of a full sleep schedule (including bedtimes, wake up times, and more) in the Health app. If you don’t want to set up a sleep schedule, you can set a regular alarm in Clock for the time you want to wake up.
