(CNN) - Most people enjoy being able to sleep in.

However, they probably wouldn't like the extra shuteye if it was a result of not hearing the alarm clock.

Some iPhone users have turned to social media with that very complaint, claiming they've overslept because they are not hearing the alarm.

Apple told NBC News that the company is working to fix the issue.

It is unknown how many iPhone users are affected.

In the meantime, some users say that turning off the Attention Aware feature has helped solve the problem.

The specific feature allows an iPhone to check whether someone is looking at their device. If they are, the phone will lower the sound of alerts.

Apple says on its website that the Do Not Disturb setting and putting the phone on silent does not affect the alarm sounds.
