iPhone 11 volume low

My 11 pro has issues with volume & volume control. This AM I had a missed call due to same issue.

Anyway, this morning I was playing some music (pandora/youtube music) and the level was way too low. The only advice I could find on web was to goto Music setting -> EQ -> nightlife (sp). I clicked, no change. Then I clicked on other EQ settings with no appreciable responses.

Then I started to examine the volume control. Sliding it up to max vol, down to min produced NO appreciable response. But then, as I kept on sliding it and perhaps changing between music apps, it came to and started working!

IMHO, this is a major problem and should be addressed right away.


Otherwise, btw, I love the Iphone 11 pro.

I thought i had the same problem. Call volume seemed very low and even when the side volume buttons used to go to max it made no change. Then I realised there is a setting. Go to SETTINGS, SOUNDS AND HAPTICS, then look at RINGERS AND ALERTS. the CHANGE WITH BUTTONS option on my phone was not enabled. As soon as I enabled it the ringer volume is easily adjusted and works fine.

OK let me start off by saying I purchased the iPhone 11Pro thinking that it will be a great phone this phone has nothing but issues had to contact Apple Support several times due to corona nothings open and the phone is simply a piece of **** I am so irritated with it it is not worth $1100 every year I wind up getting their new phone but this one is the worst even more so frustrated trying to get it fixed is completely hard because none of their stores are open and Best Buy cannot do anything either they said I can mail it in but they don’t have a loaner phone so you screw for 15 days without a phone I expect better out of an apple considering I thought I was getting the top of the line phone No I would not recommend buying it!!

Oh do I hear you! I sent mine in and they scheduled a phone call with me and the day before the call I got the tracking number saying it was returned to me “ we found nothing wrong” really you can hear a flipping thing while talking in the phone!!!! This phone needs a recall. Thousands of customers who purchased the first lot of them can’t hear out of the ear piece. 1200 piece of junk! Sitting on the counter unused!

Same issue as above. Just started having this issue about 2 months ago after using this phone for about a year. Volume on incoming calls randomly goes to near silence. I am missing important call due to this. I have no plastic screen on my phone and have repeatedly checked my settings. I hate to have to take it in to an iphone store if they are even open during this pandemic. I am in Houston, TX.

I also purchased the 11 pro back in December 2019, and I have had nothing but problems with the sound quality, as most people I speak to on this device say my voice fades in and out when having a conversation, as if it misses out every other word.

i run a small building company and this phone is solely for my business.

i have complained continuously to Apple, even sent it back, but they will not acknowledge there is a problem.

i personally feel I need to take it a step further, so Trading standards is my next stop, as this device has a serious malfunction when making a phone call, and I feel it is not fit for purpose.

i would like to set up some form of register, to see how many others are having this issue, with possible contact details, if you agree with me.

i am in the midst of sending letters to Apple, I am sure Tim Cook ceo of Apple wouldn’t use the 1 phone 11 pro, so why should I?

I’ve been having similar issues since I got my iPhone 11 in August. The volume is always up and down. I’ve tried the control panel, going into settings, hard boot once a week, and factory reset.

Even though it’s my personal phone, the landline at my place of work is forwarded to it. I’ve missed calls with it being beside me, and for the past couple of weeks, when I remove the ear buds, I cannot hear message alerts come through, which also cancelled the vibration aspect.
