TikTok star @karrabros posted the short clip to the platform.

He gets out his iPhone and states: "First go to your Settings app. Then, search for 'Audio & Visual'.

"Now click on Headphone Accommodations and switch it on."

This just means you need to turn the toggle next to Headphone Accommodations green.

You'll see a note from Apple that says: "Once enabled, you can customise the audio for supported Apple and Beats headphones by adjusting the settings or through custom Audio Setup."

Turning the setting on makes lots of different options pop up on your iPhone screen.

The TikToker continues: "Then, switch to Vocal Range and just switch the slider to strong and boom your music is going to be much louder."

If things get too loud, simply move the slider to moderate or lower.

The viral explainer video has almost 700,000 likes.

One TikTok user commented: "I love this but my eardrums don't. But thank you.. from me".

Another said: "Thank you for this.. I've been trying to figure that out for month."

However, others raised concerns about damaging their ears and noted that you shouldn't always listen to very loud music.

How To Make iPhone Headphones Louder?

You can try different ways to raise the loudness of your headset. Here are the most popular methods.

Use the volume control button

Let’s start with the most straightforward approach:

  • Play a music track on your phone. Go for the music application bookmarked at the bottom of the home screen. 
  • To start a song, tap it or search for the triangle play symbol.
  • Tap the “Volume up” button. It comes with two buttons on the phone’s left side. The top is to volume up, and the bottom is to volume down. 

If the audio volume changes, a volume display with the text “Volume” will appear on the screen.

You’re altering the ringtone volumes, not the audio if the volume indication indicates “Ringer.” Make sure that you are playing a video or a song while adjusting the volume.
