If your alarm is silent, check your device's volume settings and ensure the alarm volume is turned up. Make sure Do Not Disturb mode is off, and verify that the alarm sound is not set to 'None'. If problems persist, restart your device or update its software. For non-digital alarms, ensure batteries are functional and the alarm mechanism isn't obstructed.
