Hi, either when i call some one or some one call me when i am using spekear if it not iphone the other person hear there self, if bith person have iphone 11 which is my case both hear themself with the echo... How to fix???
iPhone 11
At first I thought it was the case because it had no holes at the bottom, so it was covering the speaker and mic, but even without it there would be an echo. So I took my phone during the week of purchase to T-Mobile and the manager was not helpful at all. He kept telling me it’s normal, it happens sometimes, it’s a network problem, the phone is not defective. But he told me my only options were to send it to Apple or Get a different one with my insurance. He didn’t even try to help, nor touched my phone at all!
The closest Apple store to my town is 2 hrs away, so I took it to the Geek Squad at Best Buy instead. They checked my phone and even though I saw the screen showed “issues found” they said the phone was working properly, but they could send it out to Apple to have it checked and it would take about a week. I work from my phone, so I can’t afford to be without it for a week. It was very frustrating because until this day, there is no solution to this problem online.
I finally visited an Apple Store and thank God the associate knew what he was doing! He took my phone for a few minutes, came back and told me there were no problems with the device, but he had me reset my network settings. IT FIXED THE ISSUE! I can’t believe it was that simple and no one could help me before. I almost purchased a new phone.
It has been months since that day and just a few days ago the echo came back, but it went away by resetting the network settings again.
Before you waste more money on another phone or your time waiting for them to fix your phone, TRY RESETTING YOUR NETWORK SETTINGS.
General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
Updating to latest available iOS solved it for most people.
We have (me and my wife) IP11 and we experience this issue as well. Echo during a voice conversation.
What I know so far:
FAST SOLUTION:
We found that this problem staring to exist and become more perceptible in a matter of time, so to fix this you need to TURN ON->TURN OFF FLIGHT MODE. This helps for 12-24hours. After that time echo is starting to be more and more hearable.
If you experience this issue please write in this thread- Apple MUST react.
If it were a hardware issue a replacement phone would fix it.
The way it is iOS 13.3.1 fixed this issue for almost everyone.
Is your phone on a hard surface when this occurs? Sometimes if your phone is on something like a counter, echo off the surface can occur.
It's a temporary fix:
While you're on your speaker phone call, close out ALL of the open apps. Echo should go away right. Tell you caller to do the same if they're on an 11.
Maybe Apple can fix with the next update, but this works for my friends and I.
Good Luck!

rest network setting has fixed the issue for both myself and my sister. Not sure why Apple couldn’t give this advise? For the cost of these phones you would think they would have ironed out these issues. Very shoddy,
My issue was resolved when they replaced the phone.
I was able to update the iOS and still had no issues.
Have you reset network settings and toggled your cellular LTE settings if you have them?
May not help anyone else but we solved it by holding the phone vertically and keeping hands away from the bottom of the phone. Seems to help alot.
I had trouble but ditched the pretty case and got a simple Apple iPhone Case and have no more trouble. It’s open all along the bottom unlike the old case I had.
I got this message from Apple.
“After reviewing your feedback, we have some additional information for you.
This is a known issue and will be addressed in a future software update”
I hope that means that there is a fix in the works.
We have a 7s, X, Xs, and an Xr. No problems with any of those. But my 11 is not useable on speakerphone.
I contacted Apple several weeks ago and they referred it to Engineering to research. I gave them this forum to check, but they stated many times that they DO NOT monitor these posts. They drug the issue out for weeks and asked me to troubleshoot many different solutions, all of which did nothing. I am NOT on Beta and only on the latest official IOS release.
So PLEASE contact Apple and file a complaint of your own. That is the ONLY way it will be addressed!
Since the microphone and the speaker on your iPhone are not very far away from each other, if your speaker is turned up too high, your microphone can pick up the sound. This can cause an annoying echo loop. Simply turn down the speaker volume.
I think I may have fixed the issue. So I followed the instructions to update to the latest iOS 13.4 as others have advised and I thought it worked. After my mother started to complain that she still hears the echo while I'm on speaker phone with her...I decided to close out all of the open apps on my phone while talking to her...and...Boom! Echo gone right away. So if Apple is looking at this..this is your fix on the next update. Please send a check to my apple ID..LOL
Good Luck Guys and I'm hoping this works for us all :)
I'm pleased if a case change has solved the issue for this user. However, we have anecdotal evidence in 2 situations where the problem has persisted - egregiously - one with an iPhone 11 and an Apple silicone case (the kind where the ther is no crossbar on the bottom near the speakers), and one with no case at all (but it does have a screen protector.
The most successful strategies I've seen to date are to a) quit all other apps on the phone prior to making or taking a call (this has worked to our amazement in several instances) and b) keep the base of the phone away from the palm, parts of the hand, or any flat surface or base or charging station. Annoyingly, holding the phone upside down and speaking into it as if it were a handheld mike seems to work best.
We have not tested this with FaceTime - the upside-down technique would likely yield questionable results.
PS We have -not- seen this problem on any iPhone 11 Pros.
