I recently got the iPhone 12 and I went to plug in the aux cord and it asked if what I was plugging in headphones. I hit the wrong button and said yes. So now when I play music it isn't nearly as loud as it should be. I don't know how to get it to recognize my aux cord as an aux cord, not headphones. Someone please help!
Hello ThatGuyIsaac,
Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities! We understand that the volume music plays at is limited on your iPhone 12 and you're wondering how to adjust this setting. We'd be happy to help.
From what you described, it sounds like "Reduce Loud Sounds" may have been turned on. Here's how you can turn that feature off:
Headphone notifications on your iPhone, iPod touch, or Apple Watch
"Turn headphone notifications on or off
You can also turn on Reduce Loud Sounds to automatically lower your headphone volume when it exceeds your set decibel level.
*Due to regulations and safety standards, headphone notifications can’t be turned off in certain countries or regions."
Let us know if there's any change after adjusting that feature.
Cheers!
I need aux cord help!
