Iphone volume too low

When I am talking on the iphone, the volume is too low. This happened about a week ago and I can't seem to increase the volume.
I tried the standard things like raising the volume on the buttons. I also updated the phone to the latest version, and reinstalled the operating system.
Any suggestions?

Have you removed the...
I jest, I jest. But seriously, if the phone hasn't been dropped, mishandled or otherwise adulterated, it should be covered by your warranty, i.e., it's defective.
Are you near an Apple store? If no, there's an 800-number to call, but it escapes me. 800-MY-APPLE??? I can't say, really.
In the interim, you may find some useful info here, but maybe you've already been.
Godspeed...

Volume iPhone 5s too low from speakers

My iPhone 5s has low volume from the speakers. It is plenty loud thru the headphones. Is there a way to fix this?

Restore iPhone with iTunes on computer. See if better. If not, iPhone 5S has Warranty, make Genius reservation or set up service and take or send iPhone to Apple for resolution.

Alarm volume too low - iPhone 4S / iOS 6.1

Hi,
I use the standard iOS alarm, and put my phone into DND mode overnight (manually). The alarm still goes off in the morning, but the volume is inconsistent, even though I set the Ringer and Alerts volume to the max. I have vibration turned on as well, and it actually saved my bacon this morning, as the alarm volume was VERY low.
I usually listen to podcasts before I go to sleep, but always do the following before going to sleep:
Unplug headphones
Return to the home screen
Go to settings to manually turn on DND mode
Return to the home screen
Max the ringer volume with the volume + button
Plug in the charger and hear the charging chime (quite loud)
Lock the screen and hear the lock sound (again, quite loud)
Yesterday the alarm volume was about half. This morning it was at the lowest volume. Seems inconsistent.
Anyone else havuing this problem?
Thanks,
Todd

Update to previous post: The speaker volume was low before updating to 6.1.3. I don't remember it ever working well.

Volume too low on Lumias

I previuosly owned a Lumia 800 and now a Lumia 920, and both have exactly the same problem...the earphone volume is just too low. Things are fine of you are hearing in a quiet room, but if you are walking or jogging in the street, the music volume at 30\30 is too low.
Nokia should get an iphone or ipod and compare, Hard too see how Nokia can sell itself as a music platform, yet produce sub par music devices.
I'm angry because of this. The Lumia 920 is an expensive device. Switching back to the iphone...

I love the Lumia 920 and the Windows 8 OS. I started off with the iphone, then to android, and now to windows 8 phone. However, there are certain things that should be left up to the consumer to control. Not everyone is the same, your hearing may be more sensative than another person. Since this is a Nokia issue, the volume should have been left to a volume level that will please everyone. I like listening to music loud especially when I am cutting my grass. It is annoying using a weed trimmer and I can hardly hear the music cause it is too low even though I have it at the max setting. The exteranl speaker is the same issue. 10/10 is rediculous. Everyone is always trying to control the way others do things and say things, express themselves, etc. It needs to be adressed and included in the next update.

Earpice Volume Too Low!!

I switched from Verizon and a RAZR phone to the iPhone last week and the earpiece volume is TOO low!! I can only hear well in a quiet room or when I use the Headphones, but in a restaurant holding the phone up to my ear, forget it, very low volume. Heck I was walking along Collins on South Beach yesterday and the street sounds made it impossible to hear well.
This is BULLS%@#!
Is Apple doing this to conserve on battery power?
Other than that, (oh and Safari crashing everyonce in a while) I love the phone.

If u change the volume on the phone does it work?
I dont have that headset so i would know...
and the jawbone is probably much better than it
About the crashing... it happens to probably anyone, but apparently, by reseting it (holding home and sleep) it makes them happen less often

Headset volume too low

I just bought an iphone for wife, she said the earphone volume is too low, I have set the volume to max, any idea? Thanks Alex

The volume issue WAS a problem. Apple fixed it for most people a number of software releases ago. Most of the volume complaints stopped a long time ago after the fix. Now, with the 3G iphone, my volume is very loud and much better than even the fixed first version iphone. I think if you read the many initial reviews of the 3G version, most mentioned how much better the handset, speaker and speakerphone quality and loudness is. I know this is not solace for someone with a problem now, but I don't think it is widespread. You could just have a defective phone. Take it in the Apple Genius bar and see if they will get you a new one.

Ipod volume too low

The maximum volume on my ipod is too low. When I am driving, I cannot hear it. When I use the car jack, I cannot hear it. How do I turn up the voume
on the ipod so it can work? I don't have the same problem with my iphone, it works fine.

And why is the crappy supermarket mp3 player louder then my Ipod Classic then???
I don't know, you tell us!
I also use an extra AKG headphone with a low impedance which fits the Ipods output, otherwise it would even be more silent.
I have an old pair of AKG K340 headphones and I use a Cmoy "altoids" amp to drive them from the iPod.
I compared also with my old 5.5 Video Ipod and with the volume cap enabled (i can also uncap it of course :-)) it is 5dB louder then the classic.
I believe it is a known fact that the 5th gen iPod can be hacked, the Classic cannot.
I am also working for a very big service department for Nokia Siemens Networks and within i learned that the customer is the king, but this doesn't seem to apply for Apple.
As has already been said, it is an EU law - and all mp3 players sold within the EU must comply with EU legislation. If you know of a brand that doesn't, perhaps it's not actually approved for sale within the EU. Apple are not going to ignore an EU law, whatever you think or say! Do you think the EU would simply roll over and let Apple ignore this law?
I am not the only complaining customer i suppose, and normally when a company is loosing (normally satisfied) customers it should think about customer oriented solutions.
As above!
When i buy an Apple product i automatically assume a very good product, but i am really, really annoyed this time. Other producers within the EU don't play by the book and no one takes care about it, or how can the supermarket mp3 play much louder than the classic (i measured the same!! output impedance).
I believe other manufacturers do play by the book. Is "supermarket mp3 player" a euphemism for something that should not be sold within the EU?
You know - since you feel this strongly about it, you should take the matter up with your MEP (Member of the European Parliament), since what you say here will not change a thing.

IPad volume too low on Apple TV when watching movies

Hi.
I have the latest Apple TV, 3rd Gen iPad and Retina MacBook Pro. If I play any movie through Apple TV using my iPad (using Video App) the volume is often far too low. This means that I have to turn my Amp/Speakers up (to around +60; +40 is normal) often leading to the sound cutting out altogether and on one occassion blew my amp.
However, I can put the identical film/file on my MacBook Pro - stream that into my Apple TV and the volume outputs at +40 as normal and everything is fine.
Also - If I stream TV etc through the iPad and play it onto my Apple TV - again this can be heard no problems at +40. The same can be said if I stream a youtube video using the iPad (+40 is fine)
I can only conclude there is something amiss with my iPad or in partic the Video App/settings for films but have no idea how to remedy it.
Pls can someone help me sort this as my Macbook pro is often left in the office and so I cant use it to watch movies at home all the time
Thanks

Have you tried checking or resetting your volume limiter under "music" from the Settings home page. Scroll down to "Music" and tap "Volume Limit". Once there you can either turn it off or raise the maximum volume. If you go to the max it will just turn off the limiter.
Here's a video from CNET that also explains this easy adjustment.

Speaker volume too low on 3GS - any way to increase it?

The speaker volume is too low on my IPhone 3GS. Other than the volume control is there any other way to increase it?

With volume control do you mean the buttons on the side of the phone? or in settings? When playing something on speaker and i want it louder, I just click the up button on the side of the phone.

Fixing Volume -- Too Low

Has anyone got a fix without hacking it with AudioAmp (seems to be mixed results with 3g). But i have to admit, the volume even at max is too low - and I would love for it to be higher.
any help here desired

My wife and I have matching 1st generation iPhones. Her speaker/ringer is easily 2-3 times louder than mine.
Can't see any 'film' protecting speakers, and I have restarted, reset, restored, cleared/reset all settings and volume controls and sound options with no success. One phone is 2-3 times louder than the other.
There has to be a fix for this!!! It's a huge problem, I'm missing calls!

Volume too low on ringer and with hands-free headsets

Both the ringer's volume and the volume within headsets are too low in my new Droid X. When holding it to my ear while talking it is loud enough well below max volume, but hearing people through headsets while driving is often too low with all volumes set to max (on loud freeways, for example). I usually keep my phone's ringer on silent vibrate, but it would be nice to be able to turn it up louder when the phone is sitting on a desk at home. Cell phone ringers can be obnoxiously loud, but there are times when people need to have them turned up.
Because it is an issue in both the ringer speaker and the jack for wired headsets, it seems like there is a good chance of getting a software fix to raise the max volume levels. Reading posts on forums, it seems clear that this problem is widespread in most, if not all, Droid X devises.
If you are having similar problems, please take a moment to call both Verizon and Motorola with a polite report of the issue. I spoke with both today and they said they were aware of the issue, and the tech at Motorola said they were "looking into" a software fix for it. If enough people call and report it, we have a better chance of getting a fix sometime soon.
Verizon's support line is: (800) 922-0204.
Motorola's is: (800) 734-5870 (I chose #6 for "other issues" a couple of times after routing into Droid support to get a live tech)
It can be frustrating to filter through the support systems and report it, especially if they tell you to try obvious things like rebooting the phone and turning the volume up, but it really is the only way to get them to fix this issue. Both techs I spoke with actually looked in their systems right away and acknowledged the issue is being reported by people.
Of course, if anyone has a real solution to this issue, please let us know what it is!

Thanks for the suggestion JKramer. I should have been more clear about having adjusted all volumes up in the settings screen. Assuming all sound options are located within the "Settings --> Sound & Display" screen, then yes, I have tried changing them. I have also tried changing the option to "use incoming call volume for notifications" under the "ringer volume" settings, after reading that someone had success in improving volume that way.
This issue is not a problem all of the time. It is only an issue when there is an elevated level of background noise, such as driving on the freeway, or having music or a movie playing in the room.
The phone is otherwise excellent! I live and commute in areas of very spotty reception (with all cell providers), and this phone will keep calls and not even have voices garble where my past two phones have consistently dropped calls in at least five problem locations. So far, everything else about it seems to work great!
Maybe some of these phones don't have this issue. Or, maybe the people who say they don't encounter the problem are lucky enough to live in relatively quite environments most of the time. In a quiet house or office, it is certainly loud enough. It just needs to have the option for increased volume when in noisy places. The issue is that its "max volume" settings are not as loud as with other phones.
Searching for something like "Droid X volume" will indeed show many people experiencing these same problems on various forums...

Volume too low on download from itunes store how to fix

My download from itunes store won't play on my ipad at a decent volume. How do I fix it?
Actually, I suspect the download itself is too low and fuzzy. How do I reload?

If you are having a problem with a song you downloaded from iTunes, you can report it to an iTunes worker and they will redownload the song for you for free. Go to the song you bought and find where it says "report a problem". Click on that, and you can explain your problem to an iTunes worker.

Volume too low on album purchased on iTunes

I purchased an album on iTunes and when I burn to CD the volume is too low. I have done all suggest things to "enhance" the sound. All other items I have purchased are fine. It just seems to be this one album. Any suggestions. Is there a way to "repurchase-download" without paying.
Jenean

Craw4dm,
If you go to iTunes menu, select preferences and click on "playback" button you'll see a check box called "sound check". This enables the computer to adjust the volume of each track so that they all sound similar in volume. So no, you don't have to go through each track! Its a global setting of your music player.
I have it switched off at all times. I also have sound enhancer switched off at all times.
These features have no effect on volume (or anything for that matter) when you burn CD's.
As to the original poster, if the CD sounds quiet then that is how its supposed to be. If buy the CD in the shops it will sound the same. Note that there is big trend at the moment to make albums sound very loud using special processing at the mastering stage (when audio is prepared for album release). It is a trend that most "audiophiles" (or IMHO anyone with ears!) detest. Look up "loudness wars" or similar, on google.
Indeed the "sound check" facility in itunes is there to counteract the fact that CD's sound different in volume - a fact that is made all the worse by the record company practise I have just outlined!
I suspect the "quiet CD" just sounds more like it should do and its being compared to a CD thats been mastered overly loud.

Volume too low on voice call

The volume on the phone is too low to hear the other person your talking to.

Thanks for the quick answer. I wish I was that stupid so I could start enjoying my $600 purchase.
I probably should be more specific in my note area, but it took me 10 minutes to find a username that wasn't taken.
