I had a similar issue with my iPhone before, where I couldn’t change the ringer volume. It was quite frustrating because I couldn’t hear any incoming calls or notifications. But don’t worry, I managed to solve it, and I’ll guide you through the steps.
First, you need to go to your iPhone’s Settings. You can find the Settings app on your home screen, which looks like a gray gear icon. Tap on it to open the Settings menu.
Once you’re in the Settings menu, scroll down and look for the option called “Sounds & Haptics.” It should be towards the middle of the list. Tap on it to access the sound settings.
In the Sounds & Haptics menu, you’ll see various options related to sound settings on your iPhone. One important setting to check is “Change with Buttons.” This option allows you to control the volume of your ringer using the physical volume buttons on the side of your iPhone. Make sure this setting is switched on. If it’s already on, you can try toggling it off and on again to see if that resolves the issue.
Now, let’s try adjusting the ringer volume. You can use either the volume bar on the screen or the physical volume buttons on your iPhone. If you prefer using the volume bar on the screen, simply tap and drag the slider to adjust the ringer volume. On the other hand, if you want to use the physical volume buttons, just press the volume up or down button on the side of your iPhone while on the Sounds & Haptics menu.
If you’re still unable to change the ringer volume, there might be some other underlying issues. It could be a software glitch or a problem with the physical volume buttons. In such cases, I would suggest restarting your iPhone or even performing a soft reset by holding down the power button and the volume down button simultaneously until the Apple logo appears.
If none of these steps work, it might be a good idea to contact Apple Support or visit an authorized service center to get further assistance. They will be able to diagnose and resolve any hardware or software issues that might be causing the problem.
I hope these steps help you in resolving the issue with your iPhone’s ringer volume. Good luck, and I hope you can now hear all your incoming calls and notifications loud and clear!
