Have you ever been excited to listen to your favorite song, only to feel let down because it sounds too quiet? It's frustrating when the music that should move you barely makes a sound. You deserve to hear every beat, every lyric, and every note the way it was meant to be heard - loud, clear, and full of life.
If your Apple Music feels muted or lacks the punch you're craving, don't worry. Sometimes, it's just a matter of finding and adjusting the right settings on your device.
How to Make Music Louder on Apple Music:
In this part, we'll explore both paths: how to fine-tune your device settings for a louder, richer sound and how to use ViWizard to unlock the full power of your Apple Music. Because your music should be as loud as your passion for it. Let's get started on turning up the volume on your favorite tracks.
Method 1: Adjust Volume Settings
To ensure you're getting the loudest sound possible from Apple Music, follow these steps to check and adjust your device's volume settings and speaker:
For iPhone/iPad (iOS):
- Ensure that the speaker is not obstructed by any case, hand, or surface. Cases, especially those with large or raised edges, can muffle the sound.
- Locate the Ring/Silent switch on the side of your device. Make sure that the switch is flipped to the ring mode (no orange showing). If it's in silent mode, the sound will be muted.
- Gently clean the speaker grille at the bottom of your device. Use a soft brush or a dry cloth to remove any dust or debris that could block the sound.
- Press the Volume Up button located on the side of your device. Keep pressing until the on-screen volume indicator shows the maximum level.
- Open the Apple Music app and play a song to check if the volume is at an acceptable level. Adjust the volume further if needed.
For Android Devices:
- Ensure that the speaker area is not blocked by objects or dirt. Clean the speaker grilles gently with a soft cloth if needed.
- Press the Volume Up button on the side of your device repeatedly until the volume reaches its highest setting.
- Open the Apple Music app and play a track to confirm that the sound is as loud as expected. Make additional volume adjustments if necessary.
For Mac:
- Make sure there's nothing obstructing the speakers on your Mac. Clean the area around the speakers if necessary to ensure no dust is affecting the sound quality.
- Use the Volume Up (F12) key on your keyboard to increase the volume. Continue pressing until the volume reaches its maximum level.
- Open the Apple Music app and play a track to verify that the sound is coming through at the desired volume level. Adjust as needed.
For Windows PC:
- Check that your speakers are free of obstructions and clean them if needed. Ensure that no objects are blocking the sound output.
- Click the speaker icon on your taskbar and drag the volume slider to the highest setting. Alternatively, use the volume control keys on your keyboard if available.
- Open Apple Music and play a song to check if the volume is adequate. Make further adjustments if necessary to achieve the desired loudness.
Method 2: Use Equalizer (EQ)
For iPhone/iPad (iOS):
- Open the Settings app on your device.
- Navigate to Music and tap EQ.
- Select a preset designed to boost volume, such as Late Night or Loudness. These presets are intended to enhance quieter sounds and increase overall audio levels:
- Late Night boosts volume during quieter parts but may slightly reduce music quality by compressing the dynamic range.
- Loudness increases overall volume without affecting the dynamic range as much.
- Open the Apple Music app and play a song to evaluate the effect of the EQ settings on sound quality.
- If necessary, revisit the EQ settings and try different presets or adjustments until you achieve the desired volume and sound quality.
For Android Devices:
- Open the Apple Music app and tap your profile picture to access Settings.
- Navigate to Settings > Sound & Vibration > Audio Effects (Note: Availability of these options may vary based on the device and Android version).
- Select a preset like Bass Booster or Loudness Enhancer to boost the audio output.
- If customization options are available, adjust the sliders to increase specific frequencies and overall volume.
- Play a song in Apple Music to see how the EQ settings affect the sound.
- Fine-tune the EQ settings as needed to get the best volume and sound quality.
For Mac:
- Launch the Music app on your Mac.
- Click Window in the menu bar and select Equalizer from the dropdown menu.
- Choose a preset such as Loudness or Rock to enhance volume and sound clarity.
- You can also manually adjust the sliders to fine-tune the audio output, boosting frequencies that enhance volume.
- Play a song to evaluate the effects of your EQ adjustments.
- Make additional tweaks to the EQ settings if needed to achieve the ideal volume and sound quality.
For Windows PC:
- Start playing a song in the Apple Music app on your PC.
- Click on the View tab in the menu bar and select Show Equalizer.
- Choose a preset like Loudness or manually adjust the sliders to enhance specific frequency ranges.
- Increasing frequencies in the midrange and bass can help boost overall volume and improve sound quality.
- Listen to the music as you adjust the EQ settings.
- Make any additional changes to ensure the volume and sound quality meet your preferences.
Method 3: Turn on/off Sound Check
Sound Check helps to normalize the volume across different songs, making sure that quieter and louder tracks play at a consistent volume. If you find that your music volume is inconsistent, adjusting the Sound Check setting can help balance it out. Here's how to manage this feature on Mac and iOS devices:
For Mac:

- In the menu bar, click Music and then choose Preferences or Settings.
- Select the Playback tab.
- Check or uncheck the box next to Sound Check to enable or disable it.
- Play a song to see if the volume normalization meets your needs.
For iPhone/iPad (iOS):
- Go to your device's Settings.
- Tap Music.
- Toggle Sound Check on or off based on your preference.
- Play music on the Apple Music app to see how the volume normalization affects playback.
