Dolby Atmos Not Working With Headphones or Car After iOS 14.7.1

UPDATE!!!: Erased content and settings on phone as recommended by apple support.. Started again from a made backup. All sound quality and playback issues resolved and loving it😍

Sorry AkainDarsh. I meant to address you. One thing I’ve since done per advice from Apple Support is going to settings>Apple ID >media and subscription and log out, restart phone, and log back in to media and subscription. I hope it works so I can continue getting off on sgt pepper and fortitude and gigaton oh oh my

Plugged in my Bose sports and the Bluetooth beats sound exponentially better. Andrew6497, even with my beats, I was having trouble getting the phone to register in Atmos. Before and after the 14.7.1 update. I personally feel there’s a LOT of techies trying to derail Atmos. I recommend 1.completely closing Music App 2.turning off Bluetooth 3.Restarting phone 4.resetting audio device 5.quickly turning on Bluetooth, connecting device, and pressing play. Hopefully a security update will resolve something in the coming future …

i found the AAC Bluetooth codec sounds great…

Here’s the answer https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT212183

Atmos isn’t supported by Bluetooth = not available on wireless headphones or any tech that uses BT.

Well, it is (was) a false “Fine”. BT doesn’t have the bandwidth to transmit Atmos. If you want true Atmos/lossless, use Wired.

Not sure if you’re agreeing with me. Helpful nonetheless, thank you. The link basically confirms that “Bluetooth connections aren't lossless”.

But, sure, they can still sound great. Faster battery drain though…to each, his or her own. Cheers!

Music comes from all over the place when I listen to Dolby Atmos albums on my Bluetooth headphones my friend! And the quality is excellent! I don’t know if you’re being sarcastic with all the whatevers but a good thing is a good thing. Cheers!

Starting 2 weeks ago the volume in my car (2008 Nissan Altima 3.5 SE Coupe) Bose stock/factory Stereo & car speakers decreased by 50% no matter how high or low i put the volume or which audio mode (radio, cd, aux) i tried. And the bluetooth Hands Free Calls Only phone set up feature volume decreased alot as well.

For the past 2 weeks I have been going nuts in my car and on my phone, clicking, searching, pressing buttons, messing with stuff idk about, searching, clicking, twisting, & pulling everything in site like im freaking DeeDee from old cartoon Dextors Laboratory.. Nothing Worked!

i’m a girl that does not kno anything about electronics, electrical or cars, Nor did i know where/who to take it to to find the problem & solution. In the end I just reached out to every guy I knew to individually come & take take a look, because I figured eventually at least one of them would figure it out.

as well aactually worse then speakersas well, set up YouTubemy iphone 11 PM for calls only NOTHING

.. The highest volume level for my car is 30, I've had the car a total of 14 months seriously never passing volume number 16, im talking not even for those riding tipsy high feeling the music deep in my soul nights.. kinda n rideNever passed 20used was 2 in for my speakers is 30 and wireless speakeris 30 is five pious stereo used to get so loud at the max volume my ears would vibrate where are youat the max volume number which is 30 volume number is 30 at the max Volume For the last two weeks the volume in my car music in my car speakers hasnt been Half as loud as it used to be…

*** my passenger front speaker is blown don’t use Dolby Atmos in you car***

You’re flat wrong buddy!! I’ve heard it with my own ears on my Bluetooth headphones and it sounds AWESOME!!! Thank you Apple!!! It’s orgasmic

Ok buddy, whatever works for you 😁

Dolby Atmos and Lossless are not the same thing. Dolby Atmos is supported over bluetooth; Lossless is not.

See Apple Support link for Dolby Atmos - https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT212182

Neither the word Bluetooth nor Lossless exist in the page you’re linking to.

No, like I said, whatever works for you 🍻
