The most common cause for your iPhone alarm not working in iOS 14 is your Ringer and Alerts volume being muted in the Sounds & Haptics menu. You can fix this with these steps:

  1. Go to Settings
  2. Select Sounds & Haptics
  3. Increase the volume of the Ringer and Alerts slider

If this slider was muted, then this will have been the cause of your alarm not working. Unfortunately, a bug in iOS 14 has made it so that certain iPhone users will have their device randomly mute this setting despite them not having done so manually. To check that it is now functioning properly, set an alarm for a minute or two away, and then wait to see if the problem has been resolved.

If the problem persists, then you will need to restart your iPhone. To do this, press the increase volume button, then the decrease volume button, then hold the lock button. Now slide to power off and restart your iPhone.

After resetting your iPhone, check the above Ringer and Alerts slider again to make sure that it’s no longer muted. If it isn’t, then you have fixed the issue. If it is, then make sure your iPhone has received the latest update by going to Settings, then General, then Software Update. You should also make sure that silent mode isn’t activated by flicking the small switch on the left-hand side of your iPhone.

The above is a proven solution for this error on iOS 14, so if you’re running this version of the iPhone OS it should solve your iPhone alarm not working.
