Apple says on its website that the Do Not Disturb setting and putting the phone on silent does not affect the alarm sounds. In the meantime, getting an old-fashioned alarm clock might be advisable if you don’t want to risk missing your morning responsibilities while accidentally in dreamland.

The Information, in February, reported that Apple is "actively working on prototypes" for at least two clamshell iPhones but will not be going into production before 2026.
