Is your iPhone 12 having audio-related issues?
It can be frustrating when your phone speaker stops working properly. Almost everything your phone does is affected. Music stops playing, you can’t make calls, you don’t hear notifications and you experience persistent soft volume and muffled sounds.
Your phone uses its speaker constantly which may wear out eventually over time. Exposure to debris and small particles in the environment may also block or muffle your speaker.
Apart from damage due to wear and tear, speaker malfunction may be caused by a design flaw related to the audio chip on your motherboard. In some cases, you may see the loudspeaker icon greyed out on your phone when making a call.
What To Do When Your Phone Speaker Is Damaged
Reboot your phone and check for software updates. Ensure that your volume levels are turned up. Make sure your phone is not set to “Do Not Disturb”, Mute, Vibrate, Headphone or Bluetooth Speaker mode. Do not try to use compressed air, chemicals or water to try to clean your speaker at home as it can damage the speaker and your entire phone!
Once you’ve tried all the simple fixes and still cannot get your phone speaker working, send it for repair.
