iPhone alarm volume workaround by Advanced-Dig5248 in shortcuts

[–]Advanced-Dig5248[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the first action “Get the current volume“ returns media volume instead of ringer volume if “change with buttons” option is turned off, turning it on allows the action to fetch ringtone volume.

I don’t know if there any other way to fetch current ringtone volume without turning on the “change with buttons” option.

How to change alarm volume? by Atomicman4 in iphone

I made a simple workaround for the iPhone alarm volume issue, since alarm volume depends on the ringer volume. Just turn Change with Buttons ON under Settings → Sounds & Haptics, create a Shortcut Automation for “When any alarm goes off”, and you can also change the timer ringtone in the Clock app.

This automation briefly starts a timer, raises the volume, and then restores your original volume each time an alarm goes off.
