I bought my third gen airpods a year and a half ago and I’ve noticed that the sound is quite low even if I turn the volume all the way to the max. I tried cleaning the speaker part and nothing works. Some times, the left airpod is also louder than the right one.

Epic advice! This worked so well! I had the volume maxed still because it used to be so quiet and practically blew my ear drums when I put them in my ears after cleaning. So much louder. Thank you.

My AirPods are not loud enough
If I didn’t come across this persons text I would have never used these AirPods again I did exactly what they said and listened to some music it was louder then before and had the bass they were talking about so I’m amazed and so happy.
Take a look at my post on this thread from December 1. I explain what I did to resolve the issue for my AirPods. However, being that yours are so new, I’m not sure if it’s the same issue or a manufacturer defect. Wouldn’t hurt to try though!
For me, the fix is to reset my AirPods 3. After reset my AirPods, sounds is back to normal (Loud and clear)
Thank you - this worked for me too! Guess a few of us have an excessive ear-wax issue, haha....
This totally worked for me! I was skeptical about sucking on the airpod 😅 but it was indeed clogged. Once air started going through proper sound came back! This is definitely a design flaw. Airpods gen 1 do not suffer from this issue.

After trying all of the suggestions in this thread to no avail, I then tried brushing the metal mesh with a toothbrush. Voila! My AirPods have never sounded so clear and loud!
I had the same issue with the volume sounding very low when listening to Apple Music on my AirPods. I tried everything and couldn’t figure it out. I finally solved my issue which was the Sound Check setting in Apple Music. Turning this setting off increased the volume significantly.
My goodness this really worked! I was reading this in the office and, at a loss for rubbing alcohol, used the remnants of a bottle of gin in the staff kitchen. The change in volume knocked my socks off!
Thank you so much for the advice. The foolish me through this guy gave me fake USB-C earphones leaving bitter with tiny minuscule sound that I was hearing. Just turn off the ‘reduce loudness’ **** button set there by default on my brand new 15 Pro, immediately sounding loud and clear just like the old times again! May seem like ‘no biggies’ to some, but it matters greatly to some of us audiophiles who like genuine product and couldn’t stand wireless rubbish alternative out there.
I was trying to listen to my Apple Music app on my Mac using my AirPods. Youtube would play loud but the music wouldn't. I found out there is a volume control on Apple Music that has to be manually turned up in order to get the full range of volume while connected. The controls on the AirPods do not matter if this setting is not turned up.
I don’t think that is the problem because I have 3rd gen air pods that I got last year and even after cleaning they still do not work. The side speaker works but not the main one so people next to me can hear my music but I cant.
After one year of airpods 3 gen volume is very low
Why is the volume on my AirPods so low?
