Work, Alarms, i-Phone's.

[Sharpys top lip]

Just been reading that for some reason the software for the i-phone wont let the alarm be used in 2011. What a nightmare that is.

Imagine how many people around the world were late for work today because of it!!

Thing is, do you use you Phone alarm as your wake up call, and is that safe?

I use my HTC as my alarm but after seeing this I'm not so sure any more. I have to be out the house for 5.30am so i need to be woke up. no way I'll wake naturally before then.

Had a pretty average start to the year, my trip to darwin got cancelled 10 minute before the helicopter. Went to bed, but management decided to have a random Gas alarm drill in the middle of my sleep, so I spent an hour doing drills. Got back to bed and my alarm did not wake me up and had to be woken up by the Laundry guy otherwise I would have been late for work.

Lets hope an Everton win turns this boat around.

I pity any one that relies soley on a bloody phone as an alarm clock, i've got an iphone and never used it as an alarm clock, i know people do like, but i use the clock next to me bed.

Never let me down yet.

I use my phone for my alarm to wake up for school a 5:30 am. Used it to wake up for the game today too

• Tap Clock
• Tap +
• Set your alarm
• Tap Repeat
• Set Repeat interval
• Tap Save

This will fix it.

whenever your alarm wakes you, you have wood right ?

so if the alarm doesn't go off, you'll still have wood right ?

get a contraption made by the victorians, that rings a little bell should you get wood.

thus, when it arrives the bell will ring and you will awake.

kind of a steampunk iphone.

This..

Now, during situations where I was away from home, obviously I used my phone.. So I can see why people are disappointment.

Just shows how many people use the phone as an alarm. Me included. Might have a rethink now thou.
