Volume lowers while using Audible app on my iPhone 12 Pro

I have turned off the attention awareness feature. Checked my audible app for player customizations and my iPhone is up to date. What can I do to stop my volume lowering while listening to audible when I open or close the Home Screen? I can’t just pause and replay.. but instead close out of the app and go back in before it will allow the volume to be the volume I had it before. It’s driving me nuts and I’m about to chuck my phone at the wall. Someone please help me.

Your iPhone and the country that you live in protect you with the safety norms. Due to regulations and safety standards, headphone notifications can't be turned off in certain countries or regions.



Reduce loud headphone sounds in Settings · Go to Settings, then tap Sounds & Haptics (iPhone 7 and later) or Sounds (earlier models). · Tap Headphone Safety.

About headphone notifications and volume

Listening to audio on your headphones too loud for too long can damage your hearing. Headphone Notifications let you know if your audio exposure has been loud enough for long enough to affect your hearing—for example, over 80 decibels (dB) for 40 hours total within the last 7 days.

Your iPhone, iPod touch, or Apple Watch can now alert you when you’ve exceeded 100% of the 7-day exposure limit while wearing headphones.* These notifications give you more awareness of your listening habits to help you protect your hearing. When you receive a notification, you’ll hear a chime, and your volume will turn down automatically. You can dismiss the notification and turn your volume back up if you choose.

*The 7-day exposure limit applies only to media audio. Phone calls do not count towards your headphone audio exposure.



Check the Screen Time Restrictions, first, Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > Reduce Loud Sounds
