OS 15 GPS Navigation voice too low or too loud

I’ve found the answer to adjusting the GPS voice volume on IOS 15.  The volume settings on maps has been removed. Go to Settings > Siri & Search > Siri Voice.  Select the voice you want to use and while it is speaking use your volume adjustment buttons to turn it up or down.  It seems to have a seperate volume control that can only be adjusted while it is speaking.  This worked for me, hope it helps others.

You must adjust the volume on the device from which you are hearing Siri talk. For example, to raise the volume for navigation on car play, while Siri is announcing directions turn up the volume on your car stereo. Same for AirPods, turn up volume on AirPods while Siri is announcing directions.

Why? I thought that one of you might have an easy solution to this mess.

you think you are right? if someone like Apple does not realize such a basic issue itself and actively eliminates a volume adjustment button (a basic requirement for a decent navigation system) in ios 15, I consider a report as useless! I will just not use Apple maps anymore. Fullstop. This made me look around and I found better apps. Much better.....

Thanks. I am sorry to bother you, but somebody at Apple must have removed the volume button! As a product manager, one is supposed to know the product. This is not a bug but a product change. And: I am again sorry but in my opinion, google (for ios!) is worse than Apple, even though it offers 3 voice volume settings. It constantly talkes and repeats itself. Tomtom go beats all of them, and so does the default MBUX in my mercedes with live traffic. Tomtom to my knowledge is the only ios-navigator that automatically reroutes you around traffic jams. Google for Android does too, but not for ios. Waze does but is otherwise bad.

In any case, I appreciate your help very much and I think we should leave it for now. Wish you all the best.
