Re: Concerning inexplicable volume drop on iPhones

['Richard Turner' via VIPhone]

Could you be a bit more specific about exactly when you experience this volume drop?  Is this from the start, after a few seconds, after a minute, etc.? In settings, accessibility, VoiceOver, Audio, what is the setting Auto-select Speaker in Call  set to?

This has been happening on iPhones SE, 13, 14, 15 and16. Now, of course, this doesn’t seem to happen only with VoiceOver users; I have a friend who does not use VoiceOver and the volume drops on her iPhone 14 automatically for no explainable reason. Can anybody on this list using an iPhone 17 advise whether or not this happens with that model? Any and all responses will be much appreciated. FYI: I’m contemplating buying an iPhone 17, but only if this maddening automatic voice drop doesn’t occur on that model. I’m not sure why, but Apple doesn’t seem able to correct this problem and it’s most frustrating.
