iOS 11.4: iPhone Music App Beeps Between Songs?

Ok, that's weird that it works on both of my headphones and not your Senns. I just updated to 12.0.1 and it still works for both of mine, again as long as I don't adjust the volume on my phone itself after I've turned it up to max. So does it not work even if you leave it at max and let the song play through the end of the song and into the next?

I forgot that my kid has a pair of Bose On-ear BT headphones that are a couple years old so I just tested those. They do not give you any sort of beep as feedback for volume changes, so as you would expect the beeping between songs doesn't happen on those at all. Quite frankly, if this issue doesn't effect Bose nor Beats headphones it is not surprising that Apple has ignored it. It would be nice if someone that has a popular youtube channel that owns and reviews tons of headphones noticed this and then made a stink about it. I also wonder how many people it is happening to and they don't care enough to complain.

Thank you very much for your reply!

So it works if I turn the volume at Max and KEEP it at max: The beep is gone.

But it blows my ears away, it's far too loud!

I connected my Phones to an iphone X and IOS 12.1 (a beta version) and there was no beep between the songs.

I don't know if there is no beeping sound because of the iphoneX OR because of the new IOS-Version.

I think there are a lot of people with our beeping problem, there are a lot of forums around and a lot of people just don't care enough.

Using fix suggested is not working for me:

- Volume max on iPhone: I don't want to deaf yet. Anyway beep still sounds.

- After that, min volume on headphones: Beep still sounds while decreasing volume... No matter headphones has an independent volume control or not.

- After that, control volume with headphones: Still beeping, no matter if it has and independent volume control or not.

Volker W. Hautsch, do you think iOS12.1 (beta) is fixing beeping problem? I don't have an iPhoneX but if the beta is fixing the problem maybe we have to wait some weeks to have iOS 12.1 released and then forget about beeping problem!

Hello,

I don't know if IOS 12.1 is the solution for our beeping problem!

It could be, that the iPhone X to which I connected once my Sennheisers solved the problem.

I for myself I'm using an iPhone 8 and IOs 12.01 with the beeping problem.

Perhaps there is someone working for apple who could tell us if apple is working for a solution (in IOS 12.1 or later)!

Just one question!

I adjusted the volume of all of my songs in itunes:

I right clicked on the song name and selected “Get Info”

I Clicked on the ‘Options’ tab and moved the Volume Adjustment slider and increased a songs volume by sliding all the way to the right (20% for example)

I did that with all my songs!

Now there is that beeping sound between two songs.

Right now I adjusted the song volume of all my tunes back to normal (to 0%)

And the beeping is gone!

Can anybody verify that behavior?

If you have that beeping problem between the songs: have you adjusted the volume of your songs?

Maybe that’s the reason:

After each song the iPhone adjusts the volume of the next song (let’s say to 120%) and the beep indicates the volume adjustment.

I would like to hear your opinion!

i faced the same problem with a pair of Teufel BT Mute headphones.

after reading many suggestions, i tried them out, as well as combinations of the aproaches.

what helps for me so far (with iOS 12.0.0):

- turn the volume completely up on the iPhone (slider or button doesn't seem to make a difference).

- then reduce the volume by the volume-control-buttons on the headphones.

and the beeps are gone. so far at least.

I found something else to try that’s working for me so far. (Sennheiser HD 4.50 Bluetooth noise cancelling headphones). Thought to try as the issue seems related to volume control.

I’ve updated to iOS 12.0.1

In Settings > Music > Playback section

Turn off Soundcheck

This solved the beep between songs for me. It did come back at one point but I turned Soundcheck on and off again, closed and reopened music and turned my headphones off/on and whatever the mixture was it’s now gone again. Fingers crossed it stays that way.

Maybe others will benefit from trying Soundcheck off.

I have this issue on my iPhone SE, I recently upgraded to IOS 12.01 and it is still occuring. I happens on 2 different Bluetooth headsets and only within iTunes. I use the podcast app and other media apps and none of them do this. The headsets work great on other devices (laptop and an Android phone). The battery on both devices show fully charged and the volume is not high, usually 6 or 7.

This is getting extremely annoying, Apple please fix this!

Thanks, did not notice this post earlier. Fixed my issue also, will see if it is perm or if I have to do this everytime. Still annoying that Apple has this 'feature', would prefer not to have to deal with it

Update:

IOS 12.1

The beeping sound between the songs is still there.

That means, Apple did not think it was important to fix that bug!

It’s just boring!

And I never ever will by an iPhone again.

I hope a lot of people will that do too!

A purchase is a kind of vote!

Just bought a brand new iPhone XS Max the other day (have been on Windows Phone for the last 8-9 years) and am getting this issue too on iOS 12.1 with my Sennheiser HD4.50BTNCs (not tried my Jabras yet).

Had a fair few teething issues moving over so far, but this is definitely the worst so far! Increasing the volume to max and decreasing it using the headphone controls worked which appears to be a temporary workaround, but it’s definitely not a permanent solution. Surprised this hasn’t been fixed yet if it’s been around since iOS 11.

I hope Apple do read these threads and gets this looked into because it’s certainly making me question whether I should have gone with Android instead.

So I found a solution to this problem:

The beep sound heard between songs is an issue of the volume between two devices being out of sync. For example, having the volume on your headphone turned to max, and your volume on the iPhone turned to lowest possible volume.

To solve the issue simply adjust the volume of both your headphones connected via blue tooth down, and your volume of your iPhone up so that they are near the middle level, then you can adjust the volume with either device to get the desired volume for your listening pleasure.

The beep indicates the iPhone is trying to adjust the volume level between songs, and is set too low. This is why raising the volume on the iPhone fixes the problem, but you also need to adjust the volume on your headphones lower. Or you are going to blast out your ear drums!
