Why are my notifications randomly very loud

My notifications (calendar reminders, email, app push, etc.) are randomly very loud, regardless of what the system sound volume is, except when the silent switch is activated. I have tried restarting the phone, double-checked settings, everything short of simply factory resetting the phone. Any ideas? iPhone 15 Plus, iOS 18.2

IPhone Notifications Suddenly Too Loud I’m on iOS 16.6 (20G75). I’ve updated to the latest iOS version. All of the sudden, my iPhone notifications are extremely loud even though my notification volume is turned down. I’ve tried turning on and off the “change notifications with volume” button. I’ve tried changing the notification tones to see if that would help. I’ve turned my phone off and on. Nothing has helped. It will go silent when I turn on the silent button, but I need to hear notifications—just not so loudly. Please help. Thanks!

My iPhone 15 Pro Max notifications volume is suddenly very loud I have an iPhone 15 Pro Max and my notifications on my phone will become ridiculously loud all of a sudden. My volume on the phone (side buttons) is almost at its lowest setting, and the Sounds/Haptics setting is also quite low. I adjusted neither before the volume changed spontaneously. Even adjusting the sounds down further has had no discernible effect. Help! [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Thanks, submitted the form. Just FYI for others - the OS sector is not updated for iOS 18.2. I wrote it in the comment section.
