When facetiming or any video chat with a different app the audio cuts out immediately when any other background noise is picked up making the call impossible to have with any sort of background noise. I have a IPhone 11 pro max

Hello, I have been experiencing this problem for over a year and it has not been a problem I remember experiencing with any of my other past iphones just the 11 pro max that I have. I am on the current IOS but I dont think this was a issue before the new overhaul that gives the option to change audio modes? I cant remember. However I had to receive a new 11 Pro max due to it being lost/stolen and my brand new one is having the issue as well albeit probably worse than the previous. As I type this on face time I am currently experiencing 1 second of silence followed by 1 second of noise. The only way it functions is if there is no background noise.

Greetings J_Skiez,


If you are having an audio issue with your iPhone, begin by following the guidance found here:


If you hear no sound or distorted sound from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch speaker - Apple Support


"If you want to try more steps on your own

If you prefer, here are some more steps you can try on your own. After following these steps, you might still need to contact Apple Support to discuss service options.

  1. Remove all screen protectors, films, or cases from your device. 
  2. Check the speaker opening to see if it's blocked or dirty. On iPhone only, make sure that the receiver isn't blocked or dirty. 
  3. If necessary, clean the speaker or receiver opening with a small, soft-bristled brush. Make sure that the brush is clean and dry.
  4. Go to Settings > Sounds (or Settings > Sounds & Haptics), and drag the Ringer and Alerts slider back and forth a few times. If you don't hear any sound, or if your speaker button on the Ringer and Alerts slider is dimmed, your speaker might need service.
  5. If you hear sound, try making a call with your iPhone and turn on speakerphone. On iPad or iPod touch, make a FaceTime call. If you still can't hear, or hear static or crackling, then your network or reception could be the issue. Try to call again later, or from a different location."


Take care.
