Beep sound when pressing "mute" during a call

I just upgraded my iPhone 12 to ios15 and after 2 hours of conference calls (where I need to mute/unmute), I have a horrible headache from having to hear the loud beep in my ears (I wear headphones) every time I need to speak. This is insane. Making such a huge change w/o giving users a way to turn it off is unacceptable. My apple household may be switching to android - it's that bad. I've submitted feedback via the link below. I'm just disbelief that such a ridiculous, obtrusive feature would be released like this. I want to run my iPhone over w my car.

1. Can the person I am on the phone with here the alert? I have to go on and off mute all the time on conference calls with multiple people and I want to make sure they can’t here this.
2. PLEASE LET US Turn off this feature! Having no way to do this is not a benefit.

I'm in sales and make hundreds of calls a week. The mute sound is making it next to impossible to do my job. Why wouldn't you allow us to disable this?

I absolutely agree – a beep sound when muting or unmuting defeats the whole purpose of having a mute. I mute because I am trying to eliminate background noise., and it is annoying and distracting to have a conversation punctuated by dozens of beeps. I also agree that this is bad enough to consider switching to android.

Perhaps you should tell Apple:

Have you told Apple how you feel? No one reading here can make the change you'd like to see.

It’s actually one of my favorite new features, and I suspect visually impaired users appreciate it as well.

Regardless, absolutely no one here can do anything about it one way or another, so let Apple know of your opinion at this link:

It is extremely rude of apple to add a mute/unmute sound. This new setting of ios15 really makes things awkward for me. Immediately update to allow users to turn off the mute/unmute sound. We should have a right to choose.

But no, you don't have "right" to anything in Apple's UI choices.

Perhaps they were thinking not everyone thinks like you as the beep is one of my favorite features of iOS 15.

You can hit mute and know mute has toggled state without having to look at the screen, as has been the case for decades with many regular phones.

If you have an issue with it, let Apple know here:
