If you often have to set alarms on your iPhone or iPad, there are two very quick ways to help you avoid having to go to the Clock app from the home screen. Let's refer to the two ways below with Quantrimang.
Set an alarm via Siri
Until now, calling Siri was the fastest way to set an alarm on your iPhone or iPad.
First, launch Siri by holding down the side button or the Home button (or say “Hey Siri” if you have this setting enabled). Then say your request out loud, like “ Wake me up tomorrow at 9 am .” Siri will acknowledge it and create an alarm for 9 am. You can also say “ Create an alarm for 7:46 pm ,” and Siri will still understand and set another alarm for you.
Ask Siri to set an alarm for you
(If you want to set an alarm multiple days in advance, you have to create a reminder instead of an alarm, and Siri can do that too.)
Set alarm via Control Center shortcut
Another way to wake up quickly is to add a shortcut to the alarm in Control Center . To do that, go to Settings > Control Center , then select Alarm and add it to the shortcut list with just one tap.
Put alarm shortcut in Control Center
The next time you open Control Center, you'll see an icon that looks like an alarm clock. Tap it and you'll be taken straight to the alarm setting page in the Clock app. Super fast and convenient.
Bonus: Set alarm using shortcut
You can also create an alarm shortcut, accessible using the widget in the Today View. The only downside is that creating the shortcut is a bit tricky. But it’s still a useful tool if you constantly need to turn your alarms on and off.
Set an alarm in the Clock section on iPhone
One of the most modest changes in iOS 14 is the interface of the Clock app. We can see that the number scroll has been replaced by a numeric keypad for more convenience in adjusting the time.
How to set a new alarm on iPhone
Open the Clock app.
Click on the Alarm tab at the bottom.
Click the orange “+” sign in the right corner or select Edit in the left corner and click on an existing alarm to edit.
Use the numeric keypad below to change the alarm time.
You can omit the 0 if the hour is between 1-9 o'clock (for example, type 730 instead of 0730).
Don't forget to check the AM/PM time section.

Where is the Bedtime tab?
You may also notice that the Bedtime tab is gone from the Clock app. You'll still see your Sleep/Wake Up alarms pre-arranged in the Alarm tab. Bedtime settings will move to the Health app.
