In iOS 27, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/support.apple.com\/is-is\/guide\/iphone\/iph07c867f28\/27\/ios\/27\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">set alarm and timer volume separately from ringtone volume<\/a>. By default, they\u2019re still linked, so you\u2019ll need to change a setting. Go to <b>Settings &gt; Sounds &amp; Haptics<\/b>, find Alarms and Timers, and turn off Match Ringtone Volume. Drag the slider below it to your preferred volume, then adjust the Ringtone slider for incoming calls. Alarms and timers share their own volume setting, so you can keep them loud without making every phone call announce itself across the room. Once you\u2019ve adjusted the sliders, set a short timer in the Clock app to check that the volume suits your surroundings.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11787\" src=\"https:\/\/www.macworks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/keep-your-ringer-quiet-and-your-alarms-loud-in-ios-27.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"320\" height=\"152\" \/><\/p>\n<p>(Featured image by iStock.com\/Olga Demina)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Want a quiet ringtone without making your kitchen timer easy to miss?
