iPhone 12 volume buttons

Hi,

so I recently bought a new iPhone 12 and it works fantastic, but the volume buttons on the side don’t work. I checked the settings and the setting called ‘change with buttons’ was on. Is it already sort of broken or is there just an issue in my settings?

Hey IphoneUser241,


We understand that your volume buttons don't seem to be working on your iPhone 12. Are you referring to a specific sound such as music, notifications or your ringer? If you open the Control Center and try to adjust the volume there, does it change as expected?


Try the alternate methods mentioned in Adjust the volume on iPhone to see if that helps. If the same thing happens when you try adjusting the volume using those methods, we also recommend checking out If you hear no sound or distorted sound from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch speaker.


We hope that helps!
