Is the music volume on your phone
too low? Let's see how to increase it even beyond the limit allowed by the
audio output.
The volume of many earphones and telephone headphones is not always satisfactory: many users complain that the volume is too low when listening to music in streaming or while watching a video online, even when setting the phone volume to the maximum level. This problem is often caused by the low quality of the audio components present inside the chosen earphone or headphones, but in some cases it is also caused by the lack of sound optimization on the audio output we have selected (headphone or Bluetooth output).
To solve all volume problems when we use earphones or headphones, in the following guide we will show you the best tricks and tips for increasing the volume of your smartphone beyond all limits, so you can listen to music at a higher volume or the episode of the favorite TV series without having to strain your ear to hear the words.
Disable volume limiters
On some phones with the Android operating system and on iPhones
the volume of earphones and headphones is low due to the absolute
volume control , a feature that limits the volume we can listen to via
Bluetooth audio devices to avoid hearing damage.
Those who are not afraid of hearing damage and want maximum
volume can deactivate this function by unlocking the Developer Options on their phone and
then taking us to the path Settings -> System -> Developer Options (or
alternatively by opening the Settings menu and looking for the
menu Developer Options ).
Once we reach the indicated menu, we look for the Disable
absolute volume item and activate the switch next to the item; now
all we have to do is restart the phone for the changes to take effect.
The next time we restart, we connect the Bluetooth earphones and
headphones to the phone and try to raise the volume to maximum to verify the
actual improvement in volume. This trick is very effective but is not
available for all Android devices: on Xiaomi for example the item is not
available in the Developer Options .
On iPhone we can deactivate a voice that protects hearing health
by limiting the range of audio through headphones and earphones (including
AirPods). To proceed, let's go to Settings -> Sounds and haptic feedback -> Hearing health and
turn off the switch next to the Reduce intense sounds audio item.
Use the built-in equalizer
Another very effective trick to increase the sound output
through headphones and earphones involves activating the audio equalizer ,
a feature integrated into almost all modern Android smartphones and all iPhones
still supported by Apple.
On Android we can start the equalizer by connecting headphones
or earphones to the phone (via cable or via Bluetooth), opening the Settings app
and taking us to the Audio or Sounds and vibration menu. Now
let's identify the Audio Effects or Equalizer> menu,
choose one of the predefined profiles present on the equalizers (such as Rock,
Pop, Jazz etc.) and check the actual increase in sound performance by
playing our favorite song.
Download third-party equalizers
If boosting the volume on your earphones or headphones isn't
enough with the built-in equalizers in your operating systems, we can try
third-party apps to get a high-quality equalizer or volume booster apps .
The first app that we recommend you download on Android is Equalizer & Bass Booster ,
available for free on all Android phones.
With this app we can choose between the predefined equalizer profiles, manually
modify the equalizer according to our tastes and activate the two Volume
Boost and Bass Boost modes, which apply at a software
level increases in volume (gain) and an increase in the frequency of bass
capable of significantly improving the volume when we listen to music or when
we watch a film in streaming.
If the volume of our headphones or earphones connected to
Android is really very low we can try the Volume booster app,
which can also be downloaded for free on all Android smartphones.
As the name suggests, this app was created to add a decent gain
to the music playback of any song, with an increase in volume of up to 200%. We
can use the app as a professional equalizer and take advantage of the dedicated
bass boost system to obtain a much more "live" sound from both
headphones and earphones.
Those who use an iPhone can try installing a
professional equalizer such as Boom: Bass Booster & Equalizer ,
available for free directly from the App Store.
With this app we can use a professional
equalizer with profiles designed to increase the volume on all iPhones and play
music at high volume from the main streaming music apps (Spotify, Tidal and
Apple Music). Thanks to the Boom FX mode we can obtain
enhanced bass with any type of headphones and earphones, bringing the volume
offered by the iPhone or iPad to the limit. The booster applied by the app
is particularly effective if we use Apple AirPods .
Conclusions
If our headphones or earphones do not reach the desired volume,
we should not despair: with the tricks and apps seen in this guide we can increase
the volume of smartphone earphones using only certified methods or
using only truly safe and effective apps. After trying these tricks you
will never go back and you will enjoy really high volume every time we listen
to music or watch streaming movies.
