Volume button on my iPhone stopped working after iOS 18 Update

Side volume increase button stopped working after upgrade to ios18 - I have a 15pro max. Also, there is just way too much to track and manage anymore. Not interested and looking to go to a cleaner more minimalist product for replacement.

Have you done a forced restart of your device? A forced restart does much more than just turning your device off and on. If you’re not familiar with the procedure, please follow the step by step instructions below.
