CarPlay Music Volume lower with iOS 17

I’ve noticed since I’ve updated to iOS 17 that my audio volume for music is a lot lower than before. I have to turn my car volume up quite a bit more than with iOS 16. Any fix for this?

iOS 15.1.1 update - volume muting itself while listening to Spotify in the car Since I upgraded to iOS 15.1.1 while I am in my car using Bluetooth to stream Spotify every few minutes it will turn my phone volume all the way down. Sometimes it does it more, sometimes less. I’m seeing frequent problems with airplay for others- but nothing about issues with it self muting.

Audio adjustment when using carplay I've been having issues with the volume adjustment on my 2021 Ford Explorer while using Apple Car play. On Bluetooth I can adjust the volume of my music or call with no issues. As soon as I plug in the cable and it kicks over to Apple Car play I lose the ability to adjust the volume up or down. Instead, the "prompt" volume is being adjusted. Has anyone found a fix? Is this is a known bug with Apple IOS?

Why is the Iphone Volume Low through car stereo I know this question has been asked before. I don’t believe it’s the connectivity or the cars software. Have Apple enabled a volume restriction on the IPhones software And if so how can it be removed. I am an adult and should be able to decide for myself what is a safe volume when listening to music. The volume is only low when music is being played. When making or receiving a call the volume goes up. If the volume cannot be altered when I want to listen to music in the car because of Apple software restrictions then the iPhone is nothing more than an expensive brick and I will move over to another phone manufacturer.

sound check was not on but volume is so low I cannot hear it while driving. Just started today… only happens when CarPlay is connected. Any ideas?

Only needed to toggle ‘off’ once and fixed as guided by @JABooJones in first few replies.

Shut off the sound check and then reboot your phone. Worked for me

This issue literally self-corrected one day. I made no changes so not sure what resolved it. But, happy to be enjoying CarPlay once again!

I fixed this by going to Settings>Music>Turn Sound Check Off. Hope this helps someone!
