Found a bug that nearly meant I didn't make it into work on time.

I have an alarm set to go off at 7am and 7:30am on my iPhone every weekday.

On Sunday morning I woke up and the clock on my iPhone had updated itself so it was already the correct time.

I checked the alarms and they were still at 7am and 7:30am.

All was good...

Until this morning. I woke up at 7:20 and I was almost certain that I hadn't heard the alarm. I went to get a shower and came back down at 7:31 (I checked on my phone) but the alarm wasn't going off!?!

I thought nothing of it but then on the way into work at 8am my alarm started going off in the car! And then at 8:30!?!

It has somehow set the alarm an extra hour forwards or something.

Serious bug there and I would imagine that there will be an update to fix it soon ish (or at least it will be in the next update).

It's doing the rounds on Twitter and Ben mentioned it, so I guess it's genuine.

The alarm works fine on my phone. Is this just on the iPhone 4?

It's only for recurring alarms apparently and only with iOS 4.1.

Odd. I'm using 4.1, and my recurring alarms work. :?

Poking around a bit more:
Do you adjust the time manually, or let it auto-adjust?

Seems to make a difference to some people...

I didn't adjust anything, my alarm just activated at 6.30 this morning as expected.

Exactly the same scenario here-alarms at 7AM and 7.30AM neither of which activated.

I didn't even realise until I was in the car because I woke up fine without the alarm this morning.
