If you're using the YouTube app on your iPhone, unmuting a video is a breeze. Here’s how to do it in just a few simple steps:
- Open the YouTube app on your iPhone.
- Browse or search for the video you want to watch.
- Once you’re on the video page, look for the speaker icon located in the bottom left corner of the video player.
- If the speaker icon has a line through it, that means the video is muted. Just tap on the icon to unmute.
You might also notice that you can control the volume using the volume slider that appears right next to the play button. Slide it to the right to increase the volume, bringing the sound back to full strength!
Tips: If you often watch videos in situations where you don't want to disturb others, consider using headphones or connecting to a Bluetooth speaker for a more immersive experience while still keeping the sound private.
6. Unmuting Videos in Safari or Other Browsers
Sometimes, we find ourselves watching YouTube videos in Safari or another browser on our iPhones. The process to unmute videos in these apps can differ slightly. Here’s how you can get it done:
- Open the Safari browser on your iPhone.
- Type or paste the URL of the YouTube video you want to watch.
- Start playing the video. You’ll notice that there’s a mute icon in the video player controls.
- If the icon has a line through it, simply tap on it to unmute.
Also, keep in mind that some browsers have their own volume settings. If you’re still not hearing anything, double-check your device’s volume controls as well. On your iPhone, use the physical volume buttons on the side to boost the sound.
Quick Fix: If you’re unable to unmute the video at all, try refreshing the page or switching to the YouTube app for a smoother experience! This is sometimes the easiest way to resolve playback issues.
