iPhone experiencing annoying daylight savings alarm clock bug. Software fix on the way. ,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]

iPhone users living in southern Australia were supposed to get an extra hour of sleep with the change to daylight savings on October 3, but didn’t because the alarms on their iPhones went off an hour early. Apple knows about the bug and it should be fixed in the next update.

This is a very strange glitch because the iPhone’s clock correctly updated with daylight savings, but the recurring alarm clock does not recognize the new time. However,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a one-time alarm works just fine.

A representative from Apple Australia said that Apple is “aware of this issue and already developed a fix which will be available to customers in an upcoming software update.” I expect this update will arrive before daylight savings goes into effect in the US in a few weeks.

In the meantime,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], users report that the best solution at the moment is to either set a new alarm every day or set your recurring alarm for an hour later than you want it to go off.

Any of our Australian readers experience this annoying bug?
