How can I stop Music app from setting volume to full on iOS 17?

I noticed since updating to IOS 17 the Imusic app on Iphone 14 pro will set volume to full blast however just the volume bar will go full (visually) not the audio until you touch the volume then there goes several thousand dollars in speakers and subwoofer when using Airplay on receiver? It does this every time when asking Siri to play a song or just when the next song plays?

I really hope they can fix this soon?

I noticed today that anytime I minimize the music app and then maximize it will always be at full volume visually only, but if you touch the volume bar without pausing the music it will be full volume audible?

Hi Donhoe100,

We'd recommend double checking your iPhone is fully updated as there have been some incremental updates to iOS 17 since it released.

Update iOS on iPhone - Apple Support

If the issue persists, contact Apple Support to take a closer look.

I'm on IOS 17.0.3. I noticed that if I turn on Sound Check, the volume doesn't go full blast but I don't like the way the volume responds when sound check is on? With it off and the volume goes full blast in appearance and the only way I can adjust the volume without blowing my speakers is to pause the music then adjust the volume. But if I'm not looking at the Iphone I don't know what will happen if I adjust the volume through airplay or earbuds? My Iphone is the Canadian version if that makes any difference?

Same issue. Streaming Apple Music via iphone through AirPort Express to my Hi Fi. Started on max volume and blew my speakers and ears. FFS Apple how about some hearing safety! Never did it on iOS 16!

sound quality also a bit more shrill on new iOS- could be damaged speakers or hearing though after the max volume issue!

There are many complaints about this, Captain Obvious. From your vague reply, you are clueless on how to address this real problem.
