How do I increase the volume on my iPad?

The volume on my iPad used to be higher. Now I can hardly hear a video. I've tried increasing in sounds to the max but it's still low.

iPad 2, iOS 8.1

If you are using an iPad 2, they were never very loud.

You can gain a little more volume your iPad 2 if you go into the Settings App and under the Music settings panel in the left hand column, turn EQ ON and set it for the Lounge EQ setting.

The Lounge EQ setting will make your iPad sound a bit louder.

This setting on older iPads is the equivalent to the Late Night EQ setting in later iPads that actually makes the sound output from the speakers louder.


Good Luck!
