I will be listening to a podcast, low volume, a notification, like a text messages, instagram notification, or any other app, announces at ear splittingly loud volume. Please help!

Hello Tk4321,


It looks like you're looking for a way to adjust the volume for incoming notifications when you're using your AirPods. Check out this link to learn more about how to adjust the volume of sound effects played by your AirPods: Adjust the volume of sound effects for AirPods - Apple Support.


You may also want to review your iPhone sound and volume settings as well. Here's a guide to help: Adjust the volume on iPhone - Apple Support.


Reduce loud headphone sounds

1. Go to Settings  > Sounds & Haptics > Headphone Safety.
2. Turn on Reduce Loud Sounds, then drag the slider to specify the maximum volume.
Note: If you set up Screen Time for a family member, you can prevent them from changing the Reduce Loud Sounds level. Go to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > Reduce Loud Sounds, turn on Content & Privacy Restrictions, tap Reduce Loud Sounds, then select Don’t Allow.


We hope this information helps you out.


Cheers!
