If you’re tired of having to wait for your partner to turn off your iPhone alarm in the morning, you’re in luck. This is because the Reddit user u / smurfses has just discovered a hack that allows you to convert it from your own iPhone. And it’s easy.
All you have to do is use a “Hey Siri” voice command on your iPhone and ask it to turn off the alarm. [the person’s name] iPhone. Siri will then ask you to confirm that you want to stop the alarm, then simply answer “Yes”. Alternatively, you can select the “yes” option that appears on your iPhone.
In fact, you don’t even have to have an iPhone to make it work. You can also do this little trick from any Siri-enabled device, such as a HomePod, iPad, or Apple Watch.
However, there are two big warnings to this little alarm trick.
First of all, whoever you’re trying to turn off the alarm on must have an iPhone in the same family sharing group as your iPhone. Family Sharing, in case you’re unfamiliar, is a feature that links up to six Apple IDs of family members and gives them access to all the same content, whether it’s iTunes libraries, storage plans of iCloud and subscription to Apple’s family plan. Music.
And secondly, both you and the person trying to mute the iPhone must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network. If your iPhone or someone else’s is not connected to the Wi-Fi network, you’re anxious. That being said, given that most of us are probably connected to the same Wi-Fi network as anyone else living in our home, this shouldn’t be a big deal in real life and will give you a way to silence a the annoying alarm of a close relative without having to tell them how their iPhone ended up somehow thrown in the woods.
