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.

Today I was going walking using my Apple Watch and new AirPods for the first time. I sat down last night and started playing around with music and volume so that I wouldn't have to be in a rush to figure it out before my walking venture. I checked the Internet, asking questions in a variety of ways and still had no better knowledge of volume, sound, haptics or music. Then I did what every Apple user does...I played.


I found out that when you are in an app the volume is controlled by the crown (knob on the side). The crown doesn't work to raise or lower volume if you aren't in an app. When my husband called earlier this evening I couldn't hear him so I turned the crown and low and behold it increased the volume.


I sure hope this helps someone. I was thrilled when I made this discovery.

I have the exact same issue with my iphone 11. The other person hears me clearly but their volume is very low for me to hear when I am using the phone directly. If i use the headphone instead I can hear them clearly. I spent an hour with an apple customer care person; we changed setting etc. but the problem remains. It is kind of unfortunate that with so many people pointing out this issue, apple has not done anything yet.
