The countries in the Southern Hemisphere are facing a strange problem regarding the alarm clocks. The problem is not with the usual alarm clocks, but alarm clocks on iOS 4.1 devices.
New Zealand is one of the countries, which is having the problem. It made some changes to observe Daylight Saving Time, but perhaps there is some technical snag in the iOS.
It is seen that when the alarm time is set in these clocks, the iOS 4.1 devices sound the alarm one hour before.
It is causing problems for those people who love sleeping. Due to the glitch, several iPhone users were awake an extra hour early today morning, in spite of the fact that the clock adjusted itself automatically.
It is not clear how much time will be taken to fix the problem. It is expected that people in the United States will also suffer from the same issue, when there will be a change to standard time. The iOS 4.2 will be launched in the US in the month of November.
A blogger on iphonewzealand mentioned, “As if losing an hour’s sleep due to daylight savings isn’t bad enough, how about losing another hour just for good measure?” The blogger also said that he is frustrated with his iPhone’s fault.
