📞 Sound & Microphone Issues

I Can’t Hear Anything On A Call

If you can’t hear anything during a call, try the following:

Check the Volume
Use the side buttons to make sure the earpiece volume is turned up during the call.

Turn Off Bluetooth
Go to Settings > Bluetooth and disable it in case your iPhone is routing audio to a Bluetooth device.

Check the Earpiece
Look for dust or debris in the earpiece and gently clean it with a soft, dry brush.

Restart Your iPhone
A quick restart can resolve temporary glitches.

Try Speaker Mode
If speakerphone works but the earpiece doesn’t, it may be a hardware issue.

If none of the above helps, the earpiece speaker may need repair.

iPhone Loudspeaker Doesn’t Work

If your loudspeaker isn’t working for calls, music or alerts:

Check the Mute Switch
Make sure the Ring/Silent switch is not set to silent.

Test Sound in Other Apps
Try playing music or a video to confirm if the speaker works.

Clean the Speaker Grilles
Dust or dirt may block sound. Gently clean with a soft brush.

Check Sound Settings
Go to Settings > Sounds & Haptics and make sure the volume is up.

Restart Your iPhone
A fresh reboot can sometimes fix sound issues.

Still no sound? The loudspeaker may be faulty — get in touch to arrange a repair.

The Other Person Can’t Hear Me on Calls

If people can’t hear you during phone calls:

Test the Microphone
Open the Voice Memos app and record a short message. If it’s silent or distorted, your mic may be blocked or damaged.

Remove Your Case
Some cases or screen protectors can cover the mic openings.

Clean the Microphone Ports
Use a soft, dry brush to gently clean the mic holes.

Update iOS
Go to Settings > General > Software Update.

Restart Your iPhone
A reboot can clear temporary issues.

If it still doesn’t work, the microphone may need repair. Reach out for help.

My iPhone Sounds Muffled or Distorted

If your sound is unclear or sounds far away:

Clean the Speaker & Mic Ports
Use a soft brush to remove any dirt or lint.

Remove Your Case
Some cases block or redirect sound.

Check for Moisture
If your iPhone was recently exposed to water, let it dry completely.

Reset All Settings
Go to Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset > Reset All Settings. (This won’t erase your data.)

Persistent muffled sound may indicate speaker damage. Contact us for a checkup.

No Sound from Apps or Media

If there’s no audio from videos, music, or games:

Check Media Volume
Use the side buttons while the app is open.

Disable Silent Mode
Toggle the Ring/Silent switch on the side.

Check App Permissions
Go to Settings > Privacy > Microphone and ensure the app is allowed.

Force Quit and Reopen the App
Sometimes a quick restart helps.

Update the App
Check the App Store for updates.If only one app is affected, try deleting and reinstalling it.

Microphone Not Working in Apps (e.g. WhatsApp or Voice Memos)

If your mic works in some places but not others:

Check Permissions
Go to Settings > Privacy > Microphone and ensure the app has access.

Test the Mic
Use the Voice Memos app to confirm it works elsewhere.

Restart Your iPhone
Temporary glitches can impact apps.

Update the App & iOS
Outdated versions can cause conflicts.

Reinstall the App
Delete and reinstall the app if problems persist.

If your mic works outside the app, it’s likely a settings issue — not a hardware fault.

How Can I Clean My iPhone Speakers or Microphone Safely?

Power Off Your iPhone First.

Use a Soft-Bristled Brush
Gently clean around the speaker grilles and microphone openings.

Avoid Liquids
Don’t use sprays or water — they can cause damage.

Avoid Sharp Objects
Never insert anything into the ports.

Regular cleaning helps maintain clear sound — especially important for refurbished devices.

🔋 Battery & Charging Problems

iPhone Battery Drains Too Quickly

Check for Background App Activity
Go to Settings > Battery to see which apps are using the most power. Close or limit heavy apps.

Turn Off Unused Features
Disable Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or Location Services when not in use. These can drain the battery in the background.

Lower Screen Brightness
Go to Settings > Display & Brightness and reduce the brightness or enable Auto-Brightness.

Update iOS
Battery issues can be caused by outdated software. Install the latest updates in Settings > General > Software Update.

Check Battery Health
Go to Settings > Battery > Battery Health & Charging. If Maximum Capacity is below 80%, the battery may need to be replaced.

iPhone Won’t Charge

Check the Charging Cable and Adapter
Use official or certified accessories. Try a different cable or power source to rule out faults.

Inspect the Charging Port
Use a flashlight to check for dust or lint. Clean gently with a soft-bristled brush if needed.

Try a Forced Restart
Hold the Power and Volume Down buttons until you see the Apple logo. This can fix unresponsive charging.

Let It Charge for 30 Minutes
If your battery was fully drained, give it time. A completely flat iPhone may take a while to power on.

It may be a hardware issue — especially if the port is loose or damaged. Contact us to arrange a check.

iPhone Gets Hot While Charging

Remove Your Case
Some thick cases can trap heat during charging.

Avoid Using the iPhone While Charging
Heavy use while plugged in (e.g. video streaming or gaming) will cause the device to heat up.

Charge in a Cool Environment
Avoid charging in hot conditions or direct sunlight.

Use Certified Chargers Only
Cheap or unregulated chargers may overheat the battery and reduce long-term health.

iPhone Still Overheating?
Let the device cool down and monitor it. If it happens often, the battery may need inspection. Get in touch with us if you're not sure.

iPhone Charges Slowly

Use a Wall Charger
Charging via a computer USB port is much slower than using a wall adapter.

Check the Cable
Frayed or unofficial cables can limit power flow. Use an MFi-certified Lightning cable.

Close Background Apps
Heavy multitasking while charging can slow the process. Close unused apps.

Disable Optimised Battery Charging
Go to Settings > Battery > Battery Health & Charging and toggle it off temporarily to test charging speed.

Still Slow?
There may be an issue with the battery or charging IC. Reach out and we’ll take a look.

My iPhone Screen Is Cracked or Damaged
