ring sound

I have a new/refurbished iPhone SE and the ring does not work when I receive a call. It works when I move the volume button in settings back and forth.

iPhone SE, iOS 14

It may be the ring-silent switch. Even when on silent it will play the sound when you move the volume in Settings.


Some things to check:


The ring/silent switch on the left side of the phone. See: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208353


Settings > Phone > Silence Unknown Callers: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT207099


Do Not Disturb: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204321


If none of the above, also try restarting: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201559
