CarPlay Music Volume lower with iOS 17

Still didn’t work for me

Go to Settings->Music. Turn off Sound Check. Not sure why Apple enabled this by default, but turning that off fixed it for me.

It didn’t work for me either, did you figure out another solution?

Nice. Fixed it for me. Thought I was losing my mind, until I turned on a radio station and realized the volume issue was with CarPlay.

That fix did not work for me. I’ve seen others report this same problem as a bug, but have not found an alternative fix that solves low volume issue.

I think that only works if you are using Apple Music. My issue with the volume occurs on any music played with CarPlay. Only hit the issue after upgrading to 17.4.1

I started running into the super low volume issue in CarPlay after the latest OS update. Had to fix while driving. I turned off the radio, CarPlay Maps still active. When directions came on, I increased the radio volume. Then I could hear again whether radio was off or on. Not really sure why.

Worked for me! Now need to re adjust my EQ levels on stereo.

THANK YOU!

Worked. So grateful. Thank you!

THANK YOU!! Man I started listening to the radio because it was irritating me so bad

Update - I toggled sound check on and off 40-50 times and everything is back to normal now. Not sure if this is the cause but thought I would share.

Me too 🤔

Oh no! Ok. I’ll check this. Thanks for the tip.

I also found under settings>sound>guidance>navigation alerts. If I unchecked this, the music will keep its volume when navigation is on. Hope this helps.
