Text message videos have no sound on Iphone 13

Whenever I receive text messages with videos from certain contacts the sound will not play. I have an iPhone 13 Pro. Other family members with iPhones get the same texts and have sound. If they send the same video to me the sound works. If I save the original text with no sound to Photos, the sound still does not work and has no option to unmute. How do I fix this annoying issue?

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 15

Hi dkaczor,


Thank you for contacting Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it seems like text message notifications are not being received from only certain contacts. It may be that the conversation is muted. Check to see if the conversation is muted and unmute it.


  1. "Open Messages.
  2. Swipe left over the conversation that you want to mute.
  3. Tap the Alerts button .

When Hide Alerts is on, the Alerts button  appears next to the conversation. This stops notifications only for that conversation, not your device. You’ll still receive all other messages and see notifications for them on your Lock screen."


Use Messages on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


Please don't hesitate to let us know if you need additional assistance.


Cheers.
