After updating to iOS 16.2 Alarm volume became lower

Hi Partorg,

Thanks for posting in Apple Support Communities! Since you're having an issue with sound on your iPhone, follow these steps:

1. "Remove all screen protectors, films, or cases from your device. 
2. Check the speaker opening to see if it's blocked or dirty. On iPhone only, make sure that the receiver isn't blocked or dirty. 
3. If necessary, clean the speaker or receiver opening with a small, soft-bristled brush. Make sure that the brush is clean and dry.
4. Go to Settings > Sounds (or Settings > Sounds & Haptics), and drag the Ringer and Alerts slider back and forth a few times. If you don't hear any sound, or if your speaker button on the Ringer and Alerts slider is dimmed, your speaker might need service."

-If you hear no sound or distorted sound from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch speaker

These steps can resolve sound issues. You may also want to Restart your iPhone.

Cheers!

Partorg,

Thanks. In that case, the next step will be to Contact Apple Support directly for further assistance.

Take care.
