Airpods normal music volume but call notifications and timer DEAFENING!

I am using my brand new airpods, listening to music at normal volume, but when a call notification comes in, or the timer goes off, the volume is DEAFENING! I don't see a way to adjust the notifications volume independent of the music volume. Any tips? I have an iPhone 6 with iOS 12.4.3 (newer system iOS 13 is unavailable for this phone.)

iPhone 6, iOS 12

Hi there, Leigh!


Thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities. I understand that you'd like to adjust the volume of the ringtone and other incoming alert sounds. I'm happy to help!


You can adjust the volume of alert sounds in Settings > Sounds (& Haptics). There should be slider titled "Ringer and Alerts" and an option to change the volume with the volume buttons: Adjust the volume on iPhone - Apple Support.


Have a wonderful day.
