Independent app volume control in iOS for iPhone..

I enjoy listening to audiobooks while playing games on my iPhone but am constantly having problems with the music (mainly from ads) blasting at a painful level. I mute the games internally but this doesn’t carry over to the ads. Is there any setting or app that I can get that will allow me to adjust the volume on an app by app basis including any ads spawned by that app? If not can anyone suggest a way to mute or at least reduce the volume of these horribly invasive ads?

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 16

Download " Ad Guard " in the App Store . I have been using the free version since

2019 , I forgot what it's like to see an ad . ✅

Picas, this doesn't address the issue.

I am in the same boat, I’ve been hoping for them add this in an update since iOS 15 and I’m just quite fed up. Will probably switch to android soon.

It's up to Apple to either change this rule or provide a way to override the app volume settings.

I don't care about ads. I am a developer myself. But I don't want the often explosive sounds of these commercials forced upon my ears while I'm listening to music.
