iPhone volume changes itself

I have an iPhone 14 Pro IOS 16.3.1


The ringer and sound volume are constantly putting themselves to exactly the middle even when the last setting I used was way lower.

Particularly when I use Bluetooth devices like ear buds or speakers.


Is there anyway to get the ringer volume to stay at my last setting? My ringer gets cranked up and then my alarms in the morning can be heard in other rooms and it’s driving everyone insane.

The phone is set to change volume with buttons. As well I have restarted my phone in the last couple of weeks and this still happens.

Hello Shaylene224,


We understand that your volume is changing without you making this adjustment. First, let's verify your settings. When Change with Buttons is enabled, your volume can only be adjusted with the buttons, on your iPhone.


"Lock the ringer and alert volumes in Settings

  1. Go to Settings .
  2. Tap Sounds & Haptics (on supported models) or Sounds (on other iPhone models).
  3. verify Change with Buttons settings."


More details here: Adjust the volume on iPhone


Also, have you tried restarting your device to see if that helps. This simple step refreshes your iPhone and the software:

"How to restart your iPhone X, 11, 12, 13, or later

  1. Press and hold either volume button and the side button until the power-off slider appears.

The volume button is located on the left side of the device, and the side button is located on the right

2. Drag the slider, then wait 30 seconds for your device to turn off. If your device is frozen or unresponsive, force restart your device.

3. To turn your device back on, press and hold the side button (on the right side of your iPhone) until you see the Apple logo."


Thanks for posting in Apple Support Communities.

We hope this helps.
