After I downloaded the new version of IOS 18.4 the speakers of my phone got quieter. I tried everything, restarted my phone I checked if my volume limit was turned on but it wasn’t and my speaker isn’t dirty. What should I do or this something Apple did with this new version because I saw that some people complained about it being too loud.

Hello!
Force restart the device: Force restart iPhone - Apple Support
If that doesn’t solve the issue, take the device in for further troubleshooting:
Have a great day!
Thank you for reaching out. I understand you’re experiencing a reduced speaker volume after updating to iOS 18.4. Let’s work through some troubleshooting steps to help resolve this issue.
Troubleshooting Steps:
1. Check Sound Settings:
• Go to Settings > Accessibility > Audio/Visual and make sure the sound balance is centered.
• Go to Settings > Sounds & Haptics > Headphone Safety, and ensure “Reduce Loud Sounds” is turned off.
2. Reset All Settings:
• If the issue persists, try resetting all settings. This will restore system preferences without deleting your data. Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings.
3. Check for Updates:
• Sometimes Apple releases follow-up updates to fix bugs. Please check for any available software updates by going to Settings > General > Software Update.
4. Test Different Audio Sources:
• Try playing audio from different apps or sources (e.g., music, videos) to see if the issue is isolated to a specific app.
5. Restore Your Device:
• If none of the above steps work, try backing up your device and performing a restore through iTunes (or Finder on Mac) or iCloud to ensure the issue isn’t software-related.
If the problem persists after trying these steps, please let us know. We can further assist you or check if there is a known issue with the iOS 18.4 update.
Thank you for your patience!
Hi
I had the same problem and contacted Apple support .
solution suggested by apple support is to turn off below feature. It solved the problem.
check Settings > Accessibility > Face ID & Attention and "Attention Aware Features"?
cheers!
Hello, I tried everything you said but nothing worked.

And I also have this problem on my older phone so I don’t think that it could be some software problem because before I did the update it was normal
