my new iPhone XS does not ring

I Just got a new iPhone XS I set it all up. It seemed ok but when I am receiving a call I can not hear the ring. I check the silence, it is off. I checked the volume, it is all the way up. I checked various rings, you can hear them when tested but not when receiving a call.


What is wrong??

Hello GerryTaylor,


Thanks for asking the Apple Support Communities for help with your new iPhone not ringing. I am happy to check this out with you.


Is your iPhone paired to any headphones? If so, the ring would only occur through there.


Is Do Not Disturb turned on? You would see a you see a crescent moon User uploaded file in the status bar. Use Do Not Disturb on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support


Also, please check is if you have the notifications set to deliver quietly: Use notifications on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support


Manage notifications

Deliver Quietly: These notifications appear in the Notification Center, but don't show up on the Lock screen, play sounds, or show a banner or badge icon.



This article also has other things to check. I know you mentioned the silent switch and a few other details, but please check here as well to ensure we checked everything: If you hear no sound or distorted sound from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch speaker - Apple Support


Thanks and have a wonderful day.
