iOS 17.1.1 Issues on iPhone

My phones volume is ALL MESSED UP. Connected to Bluetooth in my car? can hardly hear, but all volumes are maxed.


connect to my AirPods? Music is fine, but all notifications of any kind are SO GD LOUD I can’t wear them.


volume is low, but 50% of the day my keyboard clicks were so loud I had to silence my phone. I didn’t even know that the clicks could be that loud! It was insane!


all my ringtones and alert sounds are changed/different - not a fan.


anyone else experiencing any of these issues?

I had NO issues with my iphone sounds prior to the iOS 17.1.1 update. The upgrade DID "alter the fundamental functionality of the device...there were [NO] underlying issues before this update."

Unfortunately, your response does not address the fact that my alert and notification tones are silent. The haptics work.


I figured it out. I was auto connected to a bluetooth speaker that was not being used. I turned the option on that speaker to "Not Connected." That solved the problem.

However, I had been connected to that speaker when it was not in use prior to this last upgrade and I had not experienced this issue.

i had the same audio issue after the update and fixed it by going into sound and haptics and tuning on headphone safety and sliding the meter all the way to the right to 100 decibles. It worked but if you play around with it by turning it off then on or adjusting it multiple times you have to exit out and come back. Then it’s fine. Remember to turn up volume on I tunes again. It turns it down.

My sounds are screwed up as well! Some apps that I would normally turn the sound off so I don’t disturb anyone around me, I can’t turn the sound down or off! Plus sounds are so loud! Also, I had to unpair and repair my hearing aids. My bluetooth isn’t working properly. I even git a hold of my son who is a phone repair guy, he looked into it for me, he said I have 3 choices; 1 wait for a fix to the update, 2 do a factory reset, 3 get a new phone. Not going to buy a new phone, don’t want to do a factory reset, so I guess I wait! This crap happens after EVERY update. I love my iphone, but if this keeps happening, I may start thinking about android.
