SOLUTION Volume of the automations speaking voice too low

Many users complain that the voice of the automations is too low in volume.

The solution is not documented but it works like this: the volume of the voice of the automations is related to the volume of Siri's voice.

You have to adjust the audio volume (up/down keys) while Siri is talking, that volume will then be used next times for the speaking voice of the automations as well.

iPhone 14 Plus, iOS 17

Yes, correct. Volume settings are context sensitive. For example, ringer volume is set when the Home screen is displayed. Call volume, when on a call. Siri volume, as you correctly discovered, when Siri is speaking. Maps (navigation) volume, when the phone is actively providing guidance. Game volume, when playing a game (any game; all games use the same volume settings). Music volume, when using a music app. Podcast volume, when listening to podcasts.
