User level: Level 1 (4 points)Have a new iPad. The alarm goes off whenever it feels like it & won’t cease when I tell Siri to cancel. I have to turn the sound all the way off so I can’t hear it. What to do?

Do a iPadOS update.
Settings > General > Software Update > here
After that check Quickly turn accessibility features on or off on iPad – Apple Support (AU)

You may have inadvertently added a shortcut, where many are being pushed on Social Media as pranks. Go to your Shortcuts app and delete any unknown shortcuts.

Mac Jim ID - thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately shortcuts won’t fix the problem
