Is the silence button on or off when it shows the color orange? My ringer isn’t working. The little bell keeps appearing on my phone with and without the line on top of it.

Hello,


Ring/Silent (iPhone only): Use to mute sounds and alerts on your iPhone. If the switch shows orange, it means your iPhone is in silent mode and will vibrate for incoming calls or alerts. When in silent mode, the alarms you set in the Clock app will still sound, and calls from Favorite contacts will still ring.
