There is a ringer switch on the side of your iPhone

Or you could try this: Settings<Sounds & Haptics from there try changing the ringer and alerts bar.

pPlease let me know if you have any problems 😀

Thank you all for the replies… I had checked the side button, I had moved the ringer bar up and down several times and I rebooted also several times… today, after the last reboot everything worked. No idea why, not feeling very ok with it… thank you again

Use the side control and flip the switch up for ringer.

I've had this same issue. Sometimes I get get it to come out of it if I change the ringtone to a different tone. Just an idea to try the next time it happens. Mine has been having issues with not sounding alert/ring tones since one of the 14 version updates late summer 2021. I keep hoping they'll fix what they broke with another update but no luck yet.
