Apple has released iOS 18.2 with several notable features including Genmoji and ChatGPT extension. Despite being a worthy addition, the ability to restrict the iPhone’s speaker volume hasn’t got much attention. Designed to safeguard your hearing from loud audio, it lets you limit your iPhone’s speaker volume so that it never goes above the preferred threshold. That said, follow along to learn how it’s done:
Limit Your iPhone’s Speaker Volume in iOS 18.2 or Later
So, how does setting the maximum volume limit for the iPhone’s speaker work? Thanks to the presence of a built-in slider, you can easily fine-tune the speaker volume. While 20% is the minimum limit, the 90% is the maximum.
However, the best part about this feature is that it works with not only the first-party apps but also the third-party ones. On top of all, there is no hardware limitation either. That means you can get it on all the iOS 18-supported devices.
- On your iPhone running iOS 18.2 or later, go to the Settings app.
- In the Settings menu, scroll down a bit and choose Sounds & Haptics.
- Navigate to the“Built-in Speaker” section and select Volume Limit.
- Now, turn on the toggle for Limit Maximum Volume.
- After that, you can use the slider to perfectly set the maximum volume level. Based on your needs, you can set it anywhere between 20% to 90%). The change will come into action right away.
From now onward, your iPhone’s speaker will no longer go beyond your specified volume limit during media playback.
