Is there any issue with sound in ringer volume? Me n my husband got new phone. My phone is loud for calls as expected but my husband phone sound is very low. Verified all the settings looks good. Looks like issue in device, any advice would be appreciated..!!
iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 14
I had this problem during setup of a new iphone 12 pro max where the ringtone volume was v low despite the volume being turned all the way up on Sound and Haptics and despite Vibrate on Ring being activated- the phone did not vibrate and the ring tone volume was slight and descending. Even after an hour of sound testing and tech support with AppleCare, (tests on left and right speaker volume levels) and the Apple tech believe this ringtone volume issue to be a hardware issue and intimated that a new replacement iphone might be needed. I decided to quickly google and Brooklynrican's answer saved the day - was spot on correct:
"Go to settings, then Accessibility.
select Face ID & Attention.
in the middle you’ll see “Attention Aware Features”. Turn this off.
THANK YOU Brooklynrican. I think the problem may have originated during the SET UP of FACE ID step which we did not establish properly and so ended up skipping - perhaps this somehow turned on the Attention Aware feature which resulted in descending and low ringtone and no vibration. Hopefully Apple will put in a fix for this with the next update as it was perplexing even for their tech folks to figure out.
Mine was already off too. Did not fix the problem!
Thank you so much! What a weird feature to attach to the ringer! It would have driven me crazy if you hadn’t posted the fix for this. Apple should fix this in a software update ASAP!
Thank you so much! This has been driving me crazy thank you so much
This fixed my phone
Your suggestion worked! Why would Apple do this? And it didn't start out that way. I've never even looked at Accessibility so not sure how it happened. Anyway, thanks. 😊
Thank you. Followed your instructions. Solved the issue. Cannot understand why this is a feature also. Again thank you very much.
my volume on high is so low you can barely hear the ring or notification rings
Turn the volume up? The volume is already up all the way. That IS the problem we're discussing here.
Hi have tried the above mentioned settings. Please do it exactly I hope it will solve the problem.
Please don't see that by pressing the volume button it is showing high means volume is set . No go to settings and follow my step by step procedure.
Same here. Is there anyway to keep the phone from locking? That is when there is no sound for me . I cannot change it from “silence” in locked mode.
BEST of LUCK-Apple knows about the problem but doesn't do anything about it.
