My iPhone 11 makes a loud buzzing sound sometimes when its charging when i FaceTime and it happened once when i was on FaceTime only, it wasn’t plugged in. Ive tried to restart it but i dont know whats wrong. i just got a new software update, 14.5.1, could that be the cause?

Hey lunalover2006,


It sounds like you're getting unexpected buzzing noises during your FaceTime calls, specifically when charging it. Since you've already restarted the iPhone, next close all open apps, then try to isolate testing with a different charger and/or adapter.

Close an app on your iPhone or iPod touch


Do you have this issue when using the speaker in any other apps (and charging)? You can test this with a voice memo or video recording.


Go through these steps as well, and keep us updated as to the outcome.

If you hear no sound or distorted sound from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch speaker


Thanks for posting in the Apple Support Communities forum.

Have a great weekend!
