Are you tired of missing important calls and notifications because your iPhone is stuck on silent mode? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered!
In this tutorial, we will guide you through the step-by-step process of removing the silent mode on your iPhone. Let’s dive in and bring back the sound to your device.
Step 1: Check the Silent Mode Switch
If your iPhone is not making any sound, the first thing you should check is the silent mode switch. This switch is located on the side of your device.
If you see an orange strip on the switch, it means that your iPhone is in silent mode. Simply flip the switch towards the screen to turn off silent mode.
Step 2: Adjust Volume Settings
If flipping the silent mode switch didn’t solve the issue, it’s time to check your volume settings. Here’s how:
- 1. Press the Volume Up Button: On the side of your iPhone, locate the volume up button (marked with a ‘+’). Press it to increase the volume.
- 2. Check Ringtone Volume: Go to Settings > Sounds & Haptics (or Sounds) and make sure that the Ringer and Alerts volume slider is not set to minimum.
- 3.
Disable Do Not Disturb: Swipe down from the top-right corner of your screen to open Control Center. If you see a crescent moon icon highlighted, it means Do Not Disturb is enabled. Tap on it to disable it.
Step 3: Restart Your iPhone
If adjusting volume settings didn’t work, try restarting your iPhone. Follow these steps:
- 1. Press and hold the Power Button: On newer iPhones without a home button, press and hold the power button along with one of the volume buttons until you see the slider.
Slide to Power Off: Drag the slider to turn off your iPhone. Turn On Your iPhone: After a few seconds, press and hold the power button again until the Apple logo appears.
Step 4: Update iOS
If none of the previous steps worked, it’s possible that your iPhone’s software needs an update. Here’s how to check for updates:
- 1. Go to Settings: Open the Settings app on your iPhone.
Tap on General: Scroll down and tap on General. Select Software Update: Tap on Software Update and wait for your device to check for available updates.
- 4. Download and Install Updates: If an update is available, tap on Download and Install to update your iPhone’s software.
Step 5: Contact Apple Support
