How To Boost Sound On Android Or iPhone Without An App?

Other possible ways to boost the sound on Android and Apple smartphones are to:

Tip 1

• Place the device on a curved bowl or another similar object, then press play.

Tip 2

• You may use external devices such as speakers or headphones.
• For Bluetooth-activated devices, pair the smartphone to a speaker or headphones.
• Press play and toggle the volume on either the smartphone or the speaker or the headphones.

Tip 3:

• Locate where the speaker is.
• Make sure it is not covered or has dirt and water in it.
• Reposition your phone letting the speakers face you.

Summary:

Volume booster apps can allow smartphones to increase speaker volume. It’s best to use these moderately as boosting the volume too much can often make the sound far too compressed. My advice would be to boost the volume slightly and fiddle with the custom equalizer to get a good sound overall, rather than a compressed, low-quality version of what you’re listening to. Naturally, be mindful as listening to very loud sounds can damage your hearing.
