Go to settings > change with buttons, & make sure it is toggled ON. Then go to your home screen & while all apps are closed, (doesn’t matter if they keep running in the background) press & hold the ‘volume up’ button. You should see the ringer volume going up at the top pf your screen. Also, make sure you have the iPhone removed from ‘silent mode’. To put your iPhone in Ring mode, move the switch on the side of your iPhone so that orange isn't showing. One more thing, if you use assissive touch on your iPhone, you should make sure you haven’t silenced your iPhone from there.
