Android Central Question

Before the last upgrade on my S10 I was able to have the notifications/texts/phone on silent but still have my alarm have sound. Now, if I silence the phone it also makes the alarm silent.
 
Welcome to the Android Central Ask A Question forum!

The first remedial step I frequently recommend is to do a hard reset using the volume down and power buttons. Just hold them down until the phone reboots, then check it after the phone settles down after the reboot, see if that clears the problem. This is usually a system glitch, I just tested it on my Note 9, recently updated, and with the phone ringer in the off position, my alarm sounds off fine.

What other remedial efforts have you tried? If you need additional help or have more questions or details to share, please join the site so you can reply in this thread. See this link for instructions on how to join Android Central.

Welcome to Android Central! Have you tried Do Not Disturb?
 
Which carrier you have ?
Try resetting your alarm app by clearing data,cache ,force stop and set up again. This is the stock Samsung alarm app?
