Your AirPods and iPhone can often be unsynchronized and therefore be unable to differentiate between their respective levels of ‘Full volume’. To fix this, you may need to calibrate your AirPods and iPhone respectively. Follow the steps below for doing so:
- Start playing music on your AirPods
- Turn the volume of your iPhone down using the volume buttons till you are unable to hear anything on your AirPods
- Swipe down from the top right to access the Control Center
- Turn off Bluetooth
- Keep the AirPods outside the charging case and start playing music using your iPhone’s speaker this time
- Turn the volume of your iPhone down till everything is quiet
- Connect the AirPods to your device by accessing the Control Center and turning Bluetooth on, you might also need to go Bluetooth settings and tap on your AirPods device to connect them again
And you are done, your devices should be calibrated properly, if this makes your AirPods louder, then you are good. If you still face issues, still want to know Why are my AirPods so Quiet, then proceed.
