Iphone 16 plus keeps going into silent mode.

I have an iPhone 16 plus. It keeps going into silent mode. Oddly, when this happens I am not getting calls on my Apple Watch.

Does your iPhone go into “silent mode” immediately? OR do you remove it from “silent mode” and then it goes back into silent mode again? Please provide more details surrounding this issue so that we can better understand the issue.

Meanwhile, check to see whether you have Do Not Disturb set to ON:

SWIPE DOWN from the TOP RIGHT CORNER of your screen. This will reveal the CONTROL CENTER. Find the

FOCUS button (should be highlighted in white if Do Not Disturb is ON) and Tap on it. This should turn OFF Do Not Disturb.

Silent mode is not on, which is why we don’t understand.
