Volume turns up on Bluetooth connection

Hi robertareads,

We understand wanting to be able to adjust the volume for your Bluetooth earbuds, and we're happy to help you out. Let's try setting the Reduce Loud Sounds and see if this is what you are looking for.

Found in Use headphone audio level features on iPhone, try these steps: Reduce loud headphone sounds in Settings1. Go to Settings , then tap Sounds & Haptics (iPhone 7 and later) or Sounds (earlier models).2. Tap Headphone Safety.3. Turn on Reduce Loud Sounds, then drag the slider.iPhone analyzes your headphone audio and reduces any sound above the level you set.Note: If you set up Screen Time for family members, you can prevent them from changing the Reduce Loud Sounds level. Go to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > Reduce Loud Sounds, then select Don’t Allow.

Also, you may want to check and see if there are settings for the Bose earbuds by going to Bose Product Support.

Have a great day!

You're most welcome, robertareads,

To help us isolate this behavior further, do you notice this happening with a specific app?

Do you have any other Bluetooth devices you can connect to test the volume level?

If you have a case on your iPhone, does the volume still increase when you connect your headphones after the case is removed?

What happens if you disable Wi-Fi in Settings > Wi-Fi then connect your headphones?

We look forward to your reply.

Cheers!
