17.1.1 issues with volume after update

17.1.2 12-ProMax - Phone Volume issues can barely hear callers voices, issues happened after the 17.1.1 software update.

Apple please correct cannot hear callers with the phone volume set at Max level in quiet and and public background noise areas.

FOR ANYONE WONDERING WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE’S THE FIX:

settings-> music-> turn off sound check

This fixed it for me, make sure your music volume is turned down, blasted my ears out!

happened to me too. It is bugs they sent on the update so you get frustrated and change your phone to a new one. Since Jobs died, Apple’s innovative brain died, so they have to use gimmicks and deceit to make you buy new phones that have no innovative features… sad.

Same thing happened to me. Everything was fine pre 17.1.1. iPhone 12 here.

Cmon Apple - fix this! It's obviously a software issue!

My wife did the update as well. The volume on the phone sounds muffled and is nowhere near as loud as it used to be. She complains she can barely hear me and pretty much has to put it on speaker phone, which isn't really a work around.

Apple messed up on this one and needs to get this fixed. Anybody buying new phones will have their phones updated at the store to the latest IOS and they will hate from day 1

iphone 13 pro max. volume for music over bluetooth and on headphones very low. volume is max. Can't find any controls in settings preventing the music from being louder. siri is loud as can be (which is annoying).

Mine exactly the same no sound in calls ! Can’t hear the person on other side even in max volume. Also the battery is gone! Charging 3 times per day and no sound in videos

Upgrade related ! was fine the day before …

That didn’t work in mine. None of this fixes posted worked in mine and if the idea was to get a new one i am not going to buy an IPhone. if this persists !!!!

Definitely 100% related with the update 17 … battery impacted, phone gets too hot, no sound on calls at all so impossible to use it without using the speaker which you cant do when you work in an open office.

Same my voulme decreased after this update im on a 14pro max

Same here. Can’t hardly have a conversation anymore on the phone or with speaker. Stop updating and messing up the phones.

I am using iPhone 12 mini. My volume was fine before I did the update. Both bottom speaker and top speaker worked like a charm. After I updated to 17.2.1, there is no sound from bottom speaker, only top speaker is working. Did the update cut out the bottom speaker. Went to an Apple Store to do the diagnostics on it there is nothing wrong with the hardware. Apple please fix the issue with your software I’m not the only one who is having an issue.

I have an iPhone 14 Pro. Didn’t really notice it until I used my CarPlay in my car. I thought my speakers went out. The difference in loudness was clear. Happy to say the least that it’s my phone and not my speakers

is this a problem with software I bought an iPhone 12 an sent it back and bought an iPhone 13 an it’s the same can barely hear texts ringer isn’t very loud done everything possible to turn it all up mite send it back an go back to my iPhone SE no problems on that was well louder than this 13

Obviously the volume issues in ios 17.1.1 is no big deal for Apple it has been three weeks and no fix. The FIX mentioned here is not my issue they were already off. I don't use the phone for music.
