iPhone 6+'s mute button doesn't unmute (stuck in silent mode).

Hello.


My old, used iPhone 6+ (iOS v12.4.8)'s left physical mute button doesn't

unmute when set to unmute anymore (stuck in silent mode). I assume it is

worned out from its age from early 2015.


Is there a way to unmute via iOS? Even when muted, I still get some

audios like from Music app, but not from games. I read physical mute

toggle will not play audio from them. I wonder if it is possible to

override this via iOS without having to physically open the iPhone and

possiblly break it more.


Thank you for reading and hopefully answering. :)

Not that I'm aware of. The fact that you get audio from music is how that works. It does not mean anything that the Mute switch is on. You would need to have the switch repaired, but given the age of the phone and the fact it does not support the newer iOS, it would be more cost effective for you to get a newer device.
