Hi,
in the iOS 10 Beta I enabled the "Bedtime" feature in the "Clock" app to give it a try but I cannot disable it anymore. The reminder alarm is ringing everyday 45 min before "bed time" even if I disabled the reminders in the app.

Any idea how to get rid of this?

cheers,
Tex

I have the same issue. Turning the "Wake Alarm" switch off will turn off the actual recurring alarm, but will still remind you x minutes before the bedtime you originally set. This has to be either a bug or just a glaring oversight in the functionality of the app. I'd imagine we'll have to wait for a new beta version for a fix.

Edit: I think I found a fix. Go in to the "Options" section in the upper left, de-select all of the days of the week, choose "Save". This changes the wording under "Wake Alarm" to "Never" which should also stop the reminder.

I did this a few days ago, and the problem is still there...

Same bug. Interesting negative time counter after trying to dismiss the notifications
I'd imagine as a new feature Apple would be more willing to fix bugs like this quickly once reported to them.

Same issue.

On top of that, it is 12 hrs off. At 11:35AM, I just got my notification for bed.. however it is set for 11:50PM (15 minute reminder)..

I know it is beta, but this seems like a fairly simple extension off the clock/alarm features.

This is unbelievable but here we are in end of November in 10.1.1 and you still cannot turn off the Bedtime reminder.

I want to be awakened by the Wake alarm but please do not remind me of Bedtime. You can choose lots of reminder intervals but no Disable or Never?

Seriously Apple?

Apple is a pathetic company. Tens of billions of dollars and the best engineers in the world, and we have to wait 10 years for an alarm clock that provides an increasing volume alarm. THEN, when that functionality finally does come out, we are saddled with one of the worst apps ever, even for apple: an alarm which reminds us at bedtime and we cannot silence that notification. Did any idiot at apple ever ask "what if the person wants to go to bed earlier than usual"? The stupid bedtime notification wakes you up!! Idiots! Then, on top of it, you can't even turn that off - you either use the bedtime notification or you are stuck back with the loud alarms in the clock app! This company is SO PATHETIC!! This is a silly alarm app, not brain surgery! They can't get ANYTHING right.

Then, take their do not disturb feature. I can't set individual do not disturbs for the weekends!!! I don't want to be bothered while i am in school each weekday, but on weekends i want to get calls! YOU CAN"T DO THAT WITH DO NOT DISTURB, ITS EITHER EVERYDAY OR NOTHING. IT IS 2017 APPLE IDIOTS!! Wake up. All this funcitonality is in android. It's not complex.

If you are so inept apple at providing an alarm to wake people up, with your billions of dollars and the best engineers in the world, AT LEAST PROVIDE AN INCREASING VOLUME RINGTONE. Ask the folks at android how to pull off such a complex thing. I am SO TIRED OF APPLE. I get a $700 brand new phone, and I cant tell it to not disturb me only on weekdays. I can't get it to stop bothering me at my bedtime or waking me up if i dare go to sleep early. It is hilarious. And the worst thing is that because of their closed OS, NO THIRD PARTIES CAN MAKES APPS WHICH GIVE THIS FUNCTIONALITY1!!!!

Surprisingly, my situation is the complete opposite:
Wake alarm goes off in time, but never receive bed time notification starting from one version I could not remember.
