I had a problem with extremely low volume on my Iphone 6 - SOLVED!.

Other functions like, speaker, bluetooth were OK.

The solution was a big surprise to myself - since I was sure it was SW or a setting somewhere.


I carefully cleaned the little slot in the glas in the frontside of the phone where the sound comes out in normal use. I used a little piece of cotton with a little water/soap for dishwashing - do not soak it in water - did this app 5 times. I then used alcohol - did this app 5 times.


I almost cannot believe the change it did ;o) I had to adjust the volume down again.


So in my case it wasn't SW or settings - but simply dirt (not visible to me) that had to be mechanically remowed.

I recently noticed I have the Same issue with my phone. I usually use the speaker function as I live on the road, however, the other day I want to use just the regular iPhone mode and I could not hear the other person when using the iPhone and phone mode.


In addition, since Ilive on the road, I often use Siri for talk to text. That function is not working properly either it’s not understanding my words and Alina <<<< see that was supposed to say any longer not what it says , which is, “and Alina.”


It looks like many people are having the same problem wherein in response to the first post Apple said it WAS NOT a software issue and based on the number of complaints, it clearly IS A SOFTWARE issue.


Respectfully request that this issue be resolved promptly!


A call back would be greatly appreciated!!


Sincerely


Joseph
