How Do I Turn Up the Volume on My Apple Watch Phone Call?

Published in Apple Watch Calls 2 mins read

You can easily adjust the volume during a phone call on your Apple Watch using two primary methods, or mute the call if needed. These controls are accessible directly on your watch while a call is active.

Adjusting Call Volume on Apple Watch

When you're actively on a phone call using your Apple Watch, you have quick access to adjust the speaker volume. The two main ways to do this are:

  • Turn the Digital Crown: While you are on a phone call, simply rotate the Digital Crown (the circular dial on the side of your Apple Watch). Turning it clockwise will increase the speaker's volume, making the person on the other end sound louder. Turning it counter-clockwise will decrease the volume.
  • Tap On-Screen Volume Symbols: Alternatively, you can tap the volume symbols directly on your Apple Watch screen during the call. Your screen will display user interface elements, often including icons that allow you to adjust the volume by tapping or sliding.

Muting Your End of the Call

If you need to mute your microphone during a call, for instance, when you're listening in on a conference call and don't wish to be heard, you can easily do so from your Apple Watch:

  • Tap the Mute Button: While on the phone call, locate and tap the Mute button displayed on your Apple Watch screen. This action will mute your microphone, ensuring that the person or people on the other end of the call cannot hear any sound from your side. Tapping it again will unmute your microphone.

These simple methods provide quick and convenient control over your call audio directly from your wrist, enhancing your hands-free communication experience.
