Low audio since update to 26 and 26.2

i have an iPhone 13 Pro Max. I have just updated the software to 26. Since the update chat gtp and Pi ai platforms have muted sound. Music, video and calls remain unchanged. I have adjusted all the audio settings and even reset all settings. I hope someone can help me. Many thanks in advance.

No audio on iPhone 13 after 17.5.1 Update Recently I updated to 17.5.1 on iPhone 13. I made a video this morning with audio that recorded the video but plays no audio. I’ve tried everything. I rebooted my phone. I’ve checked the silent switch. And volume. I’ve tried different apps to look at the video and there is just no audio, point blank. I’ve even tried taking new video with anudio, and no matter what I do there is no audio. Volume is at its max. I tried from photos, from iMessage. It worked before the update. Now it doesn’t.

Low audio quality after updating iPhone 14 to iOS 18.1.1 After updating my iphone 14 to IOS 18.1.1 the volume of my device has suddenly become very poor. You can't hear incoming calls, alarms, timers etc. Before the update it was working just fine. This is the second time it is happening. Once it occured when I updated my iphone to IOS 18 but then it automatically got resolved with next update. Kindly provide some insight if you are/have faced the same issue and how to resolve it.

Not so much the wrong forum, but rather you are addressing a different issue. The OP has good quality sound on everything apart from zero sound on two specific AI sites.

Thank you for this in-depth answer. Unfortunately nothing helped though. My device is not jailbroken. I have contacted Pi and await their response.

Chat gtp seems to be ok now, but pi is still muted on speaker voice chat.
