Here you go.  Several ways to change Siri volume.

 

Apple’s virtual assistant, Siri, is an essential tool. Sometimes, though, its 
voice can be jarringly loud or too quiet to easily hear. Luckily, it’s easy to 
change Siri’s volume on an iPhone or iPad.


Use Voice Commands to Adjust Siri’s Volume


Your voice is probably the easiest way to control Siri’s volume. To adjust its 
volume this way, press and hold the Side or Home button (or say, “Hey Siri,” 
<https://www.howtogeek.com/213855/how-to-make-siri-respond-to-your-voice/> ) to 
launch it. Then say something like, “Change your volume to 75 percent.”



This sets Siri’s (and the media playback) volume to 75 percent of the maximum 
setting. You can specify any value from 1 to 100 percent.

You can also just say, “Speak louder,” or “Speak softer,” to change Siri’s 
volume.


Adjust Siri’s Volume with the Volume Buttons


You can also change Siri’s volume by pressing the volume buttons on the side of 
your device. Some confusion can arise when using these buttons, though 
<https://www.howtogeek.com/328610/how-to-control-both-ringer-and-system-volume-with-the-iphones-volume-buttons/>
 . This is because they sometimes control the ringer or media playback volume.



To make sure you’re controlling the right setting, ask Siri a question, and 
then press the Volume Up or Down button to see if it responds.

Buttons 
<https://www.howtogeek.com/328610/how-to-control-both-ringer-and-system-volume-with-the-iphones-volume-buttons/>
 


Change Siri’s Volume in Control Center


If you’d prefer to use the touch screen to change Siri’s volume, you can also 
adjust it in Control Center 
<https://www.howtogeek.com/520399/how-to-use-control-center-on-your-iphone-or-ipad/>
 . Launch Control Center in one of the following ways:

* iPhone X or newer/iPad running iOS 12 or later: Swipe down from the 
top right of the screen. 

* iPhone 8 or earlier/iPad running iOS 11 or earlier: Swipe up from the 
bottom of the screen. (Control Center first appeared in iOS 7).



Tap the Volume slider to raise or lower Siri’s volume until you’ve got it where 
you want it.

Hello,

 

I have an IPhone 8 & am current on IOS.  The volume I have for navigating the 
screen is fine, controlled by the volume option on the rotor.  The physical 
volume buttons control the volume of calls & notifications.  How can I control 
the volume of Siri?  She is too quiet but I can’t find how to turn her volume 
up.

 

Thanks,
