Method 1. Regulating the sound with your volume buttons. On the left side of your iPhone, there are two small buttons that change the sound of your iPhone. Press the "minus" button to reduce the volume and "plus" button to increase it. . Right now the buttons are in the "ringer" mode, in the next step we'll show you how to make buttons control the general audio of iPhone. Almost in the same place, is also a small rectangular switch that puts phone from "ringer" to "silent" and back. Step 2. Method 2. Regulating volume of calls and alerts with "Settings". From the home screen, tap the "Settings" app, then scroll and tap "Sounds". This is the heart of sound controls for ringers, messages and alerts. Under "Ringer and Alerts" you can move the slider to increase or decrease the volume of, well, ringer and alerts :). Next is "Change with Buttons" function. We mentioned before that volume buttons can operate in two modes. By disabling the function, you switch your volume buttons to regulating overall phone sound, instead of just changing the volume of ringtone and alerts. Here's how the buttons work in O verall mode. As you can see, you can totally mute the general audio of iPhone. Under "Sounds and Vibration Patterns", you can disable the sound of any new message, mail or alert, except for disabling ringtone volume. For instance, for a completely silent treatment we tap "Text Tone", and, from the list of message ringtones, choose" None". We repeat the same for most of voicemail, mail, web and app alerts. Noise pollution level is reduced! For the ringtone, we'll assign the "10 Seconds Silence" ringtone previously downloaded from the web. The last thing you can here do is to disable "Lock Sound" or "Keyboard Clicks", if you wish so. Step 3. Method 3. Regulating the volume of the call. When you are calling someone or someone calls you, you can regulate the sound of the conversation by using the same "plus" and "minus" buttons on the left. Use them to play with the call volume or, if you don't feel like talking, tap the "mute" icon. You can also quickly enable and disable "mute" when you want to discuss something with a third person near you or when you don't want your mother to hear the sounds of a party getting loud! Step 4. Method 4. Regulating sound of Music app and other apps. The Music app has several methods of sound control. The easiest one works via Control Center. Swipe up to reveal the Control Center. Move the slider of the Sound Control to adjust the sound of music played on your iPhone. Here's how it sounds with the different volume! The second method, also easy, works with the volume buttons. Volume buttons will always change the audio's volume, not matter what your iPhone settings are. And here is the third way: Tap "Settings" and then tap "Music". From the Music menu, choose "Volume Limit". Move the slide of "Max Volume" to adjust the maximum volume of your music tracks. Result: That's it, folks! We hope that we have shaded more light into complicated science of sound regulating on iPhone.
