Icons on volume slider (control centre)

I have noticed there are different icons that appear on volume slider. Like when Bluetooth is connected or airpods there are different icons for different things.

Can someone explain me what are all different icons and in what case which appears.

Greetings meet51!


From your post we see you have some questions about the icons you see on the volume slider in the Control Center on your device. We are happy to help! Those icons will change when the audio is being played on another device. So if you see a speaker it is playing through your iPhone, but when it switches to an AirPods icon then the audio is playing through your AirPods. Not all device's will have an icon but if any do they will update to show on that slider.

Hope that clears things up! Have a great rest of your day.
