In less than two minutes today, I’ll be showing you how to turn off the volume limit on your iPhone, but before that, what is even this volume limit feature, and what does it do on iPhones?
What is the iPhone volume limit all about?
Simple, the volume limit is a feature that prevents you from turning the volume on your iPhone past a certain preset level when consuming media on it, and aside from iPhones, you can also find a similar feature with different names on Android smartphones alike too.
Manufacturers include and activate this feature by default to prevent users from listening to music or watching videos at very high volumes for long periods of time, as doing so might actually lead to hearing deficiencies in the future for the said users.
But, it’s a good thing it can be turned off, probably if you don’t care about your ears, and just want to crank up the music volume on your iPhones to the highest it can get to, and today, I’m gonna show you exactly how you can do that with just a few steps.
