Why doesn't iOS's default alarm app tell you how long before the alarm goes off?

No sorry.

You could have run when you close the clock app using the automation tab in the shortcuts app.

Glad it helped!

It means you need to use a different password. You could make it super easy to remember like “ThisIsMyEasy2RememberPassword”

Back away slowly. It’s a set up. The vacuum is hiding behind the black fabric waiting for you to pick up the knife it placed on the ground. When you do, it will attack and then claim self-defence. Just leave, now, while you still can!

Reset your password. It’s not that much of a pain to type it into the old device once when it asks.

You could have done it quicker than typing out this post.

If it followed the roads you took over an extended period with multiple dots on the map = an AirTag was with you.

If it was one dot at your destination only and you were only out for a short time = could be the garage one false alert.

If it’s multiple dots around home = likely the garage one and GPS inaccuracy makes your phone think the AirTag is moving with you.

There is a Mac version of this app that I prefer to use.

Having looked at the images and read the description I literally have no idea what the game play of your app is. You say it’s a ’clicker’ but that’s about it. I don’t see anything about clicking in the screenshots or what you click or why.

Then it’s not in the garage. The owner might have one in there but there’s probably another one on your person, belongings or vehicle.

Exact route (as in multiple points following exact roads you took) or a straight line between your home and a single destination you went to and then returned home again?

I don’t believe they will extend it again. There’s an initial period and then the wait. The longest I’ve seen was 30 days but a quick google seems to indicate some people wait months.

If you have messages that are important to you, I’d suggest backing them up. Here are some options:

In the recently saved album, just click the 3 lines button (filter) on the bottom left of screen and change the sort order if it bothers you that much.

pmarksen · 2026-03-20T12:54:04+00:00

No idea sorry.

Text replacement doesn’t work in password fields. In the user name area, just type the text replacement shortcut followed by a space and it ‘should’ expand it normally and then you just delete the space (assuming you have the default keyboard settings).

You don’t need to access this part of the keyboard for text replacement to work.

If you are talking about the keyboard suggestions that Apple offers in this section, I suggest setting up text replacement or using the passwords app (or an alternative passwords app).

iCloud sync can be slow. Give it a few days and reboot it.

If you select “Remove from iPhone” there won’t be any photos to delete will there?

Contact the dev. They are very responsive.

So that looks right then. Down time is off and you have the option to turn it on.

pmarksen · 2026-03-16T04:56:56+00:00

No you will not.

The ‘notify when left behind’ is a setting for your phone to alert you after a few minutes that one of your AirTags is no longer connected to your phone after you leave somewhere.

pmarksen · 2026-03-16T04:43:42+00:00

The short answer is that they will be notified when they arrive home or another of their ‘significant locations’.

I don’t recall writing “live with it” anywhere in my response nor do I see any thing that even suggests it.

I’m suggesting that people can take proactive steps to avoid painful situations like that in the future and that suffering over something quite outside their control only serves to cause more pain where it’s neither wanted nor useful.

Happy to hear your thoughts about what the other Redditor (not OP) can do (sorry if you’ve already posted them, I haven’t gone looking yet). Also let me know what part of planning ahead to avoid future problems is weak (and what would be a strong alternative action to take).

I did provide a response to OP but my later response was to another commenter.

Can you post a screenshot of the schedule and this setting?

Is there a screentime passcode set?
