The new iOS 17 update has gotten iPhone users in a panic. This is due to the alleged gossip that some iPhones are randomly turning off at night. This is probably not something to be alarmed at, however, if there is an emergency at night and someone can’t reach you, it would be a problem.
Furthermore, this may potentially disrupt alarms and other functions. Users have reported alarm failures on Reddit, revealing that their iPhones had turned off at night, subsequently restarting moments before the alarms were set to go off.
The problem seems to affect various iPhone models and could be linked to iOS 17. To determine if your iPhone has encountered this issue, check the Battery section in the Settings app to identify any gaps in the charging status over the past 24 hours. Apple has not yet addressed the problem.

It started off with a Redditor complaining that their iPhone is seemingly turning itself off for a few hours at night. Furthermore, the user then claims to have done everything as they would normally do. However, it seems that the phone would automatically turn on 30 minutes before the alarm would set off.

Another Redditor states that their older iPhones shut down, but not the new iPhone 15 Pros. However, they speculate that it could be a momentarily shut down and reboot process. The user then elaborates citing that the phone’s calculation would not begin until the passcode is keyed in.

Following that, some decide to joke around the situation claiming that the iPhone is merely trying to sleep. Furthermore, it seems that the problem is a peculiar one, but it would most probably be a bug that Apple will fix later on.
