Is your iPhones ear speaker quiet or muffled and you can barely hear people on calls? In this video I will show you this neat little hack for cleaning iPhone ear speakers.
We identified the 165hz tone as the most suitable sound to thoroughly clean iPhone top speaker. when combined with a little isopropyl alcohol this is an effective trick to really get all the gunk out of the little mesh at the top of the phone.
I hope you enjoy the videos as much as I do making them. Thank you for watching!

I don't have isopropyl alcohol. What else can I use?
Can it be 90% isopropyl alcohol?
I don't know how to thank you enough. I was using my phone on speaker for past 2 years and now after just 5 minutes I have normal speaker sound. Thank you so much!
I've used CZcams videos to guide me through everything from car repair to recording studio tutorials and this one was the MOST USEFUL video I've ever used! Worked perfectly on my wife's phone. Thanks for your help!
I am so amazed that my mouth is literally hanging open. I didn’t realize how bad my speaker was. Even as I type this, I can hear the hepatic keyboard sound. There is a special place for you for showing me this ❤
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH FOR THIS!!!! i literally thought the speakrs on my xs max were busted, but they were just filled with dirt. now with your help, they are back to normal, louder than ever, thanks again!!
I cannot appreciate you enough for making this video! I tried everything and nothing was working, but instantly after doing this the speaker completely cleared up! You're a wizard!!
After making sure the screen protector was removed, brushing it with a toothbrush, ensuring the audio balance was set to the middle, disabling automatic call routing, and even trying to "jiggle" the audio slider, this video was the only thing that actually worked. Thank you! =)
Tested on my iphone 12 pro max and it really works! Could barely hear the other person speak, now it's like brand new again. Thank you!
Just came here to comment.
I couldn’t believe my eyes.
I already had attempted the cleaning process, and the speaker was muffled. I did this procedure, but i only had ethylic alcohol.
But it worked, the alcohol started to vibrate and the sound is louder. Is is not perfect, but now usable again.
Thank you very much!!! 🎉❤😅😂
Had an iPhone X earpiece speaker that was barely audible even at full volume. After only a few minutes of following this guide, it is SO MUCH BETTER. It is actually crazy the difference this made. Thank you so much!
how you make this sound comes out of your upper speaker?
thank you so much! my earpiece and speaker almost had no sound in them anymore, i followed your instructions and worked as a charm, i been asked a lot of money at the repair shop to change the earpiece and speaker and i cant believe this video actually helped me
Hi, I just want to say thank you…I made this on my phones (iPhone 11 and 11 Pro Max) and now I can hear so good…the situation was critical but now it’s amazing…Thank you 😊❤
I would like to thank you VERY MUCH for inspiring me to get a second hand iPhone XR I bought recently. I made a Reddit post called "If your ear-speaker is muffled, try this." and of course, gave you due credit. Cheers from Portugal.
liquid name plz ?
@@ZohaibKhan-nb3hi isopropyl alcohol
Hi josé I have the same issue for my iPhone 12 pro , when i played the 165Hz sound of Idoctoruk i could hear a slight vibration sound from my ear speaker does it mean that my ear speaker is alright i just need to clean it . Please reply brother it will help me alot 🙏Thanks..
@@zaidkadiri8190SAME HERE… all of a sudden can’t hear anything unless on speaker phone
😂that’s exactly why I’m here. Same reason and same phone.
I was going to be really annoyed if I had to replace my 11 ProMax due to the earpiece speaker. This worked perfectly in tandem with the 165hz tone video. Bravo sir, thank you for putting this on the internet
One of the best videos for muted ear speakers solution on CZcams❤ Thank you ❤
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching
Worked first time, was about to put it in the repair shop , quoted £45 for speaker replacement . Got to love CZcams and the guys who help us daily . Thank you
I’m really glad this helped - we quote the same for speaker replacement but 9 times out of 10 this is the solution - we don’t charge to do that
@@iDoctorUK what can we use instead of that alcohol ?
@@donaldduck5804 they sell it in any store that sells bandaids and first aid kits. It'll be by the hydrogen peroxide and dirt cheap
wow this actually worked! i thought i needed a speaker but its back to normal now! lol thank you good sir! 💯🔥
Just tried this and it works a treat…. My speaker isn’t 100% but it’s night and day to what it was…. Brilliant 👍
THANK YOU! I have a iphone x with a muffled speaker,tried this and bam! Almost as good as new! You deserve all the subscribers in the world!
The earspeaker on my iPhone 12 was sounding distorted at high volumes. This procedure fixed it. Thank you!
this guy is amazing I followed his steps on how to clean the ear speaker and I can hear everything loud and clear!
Thank you SO MUCH! This is THE ONLY video that wasn't like all the others and actually FIXED my problem! I was ready to go buy a new phone until I came across this video! You saved me a lot of money! Thank you again!
Thanks...when nothing else worked, your tutorial was super helpful and solved this year long problem
This is amazing! My 11 all of a sudden became so quiet on calls even when at max volume. Following these steps and using that other165hz tone video, it was back to near new condition in just 5 minutes.
That’s great news, I’m glad you found this video
Worked for me today. I had already fixed up appointment with Apple Store for replacement of my mobile earpiece. Thanks a lot dude. Saved me money and trouble. Super video. Done. Made my day. ❤
Worked Awesome! I was going to buy a new phone because I could hear much at all out of the ear speaker. After seeing the prices I started searching how to fix the speaker and came across this. Worked perfectly! Thank you so much!!!
YUP!!!! %100 fixed my issue...thank you. I recently called my cell provider about a phone upgrade due to low and muffled call volumes.
Tried it just now, cause my iphone 11 ear speakers are very muffled and surprisingly it works!! Thank you so much for this helpful tip it got me save money before taking it to repair shop.
How did you put the alcohol on the speaker?
literally got the job done in 5 minutes. Thank you this is awesome. Subscribed.
This...this...this worked brilliantly! INCREDIBLE RESULT OMG. Thank you for sharing this! Also worked like a charm for the bottom speaker!
Thank you so muchhhh brother!!! Now my ear speaker is back to normal again. I nearly gave up because I’ve search for a lot of tutorials on youtube and none of them solve my problem. Thumbs up for your video!
Glad I could help
Thank you so much! Never thought about vibrations along with this sort of cleaning. It did wonders!
I just want to say thank you so much for this video. It helped my phone and I can finally hear again on it. Thought I was going to have to spend a lot and fix it or get a new phone. So happy! 😊
Legend!
I spent the past 6 hours trying to work out if it’s time I finally pass on my trusted XR and get a new IPhone I don’t want.
Turns out all I needed to do was clean my ear piece and the mic and it’s brand new.
Thanks!
Bro!!! Thanks to you it feels I have a new phone !!!!! It actually works with the 165hz video and alcohol and brush . Omg
Mate, brilliant vid. My XR was driving me nuts with the low earpiece volume. Just got some isopropyl of Amazon and carried out this procedure. 100% improvement. Thanks.
Amazing. Thank you so much!!! If anyone like me is wondering where the hell to find alcohol- check any nail products you have! My prep wipe is literally the same thing!
Thank you for this!!! 😊
I was already thinking of having my iPhone’s ear speaker replaced, but then this worked for me. My speaker was just fixed for free. Thanks a lot! You deserve a Ballon d’Or!
Ballon d’Or 😂😂😂😂😂
Bro what
how you make this sound comes out of your upper speaker?
This is the best video. Fixed my problem right away. Thank you!!
God bless you! Mine is officially working no issues at all. I couldn’t listen to callers i am always using the loud speaker option. Until I stumbled upon this video. I just did it and it fixed my iPhone 12pmax . God bless you
THIS ACTUALLY HELPED ME my speaker works again 😭🧡
I never leave comments or reviews BUT… this worked like a DREAM!!! Saved me so much time and money!
Thank you very much! My iPhone X had some dense liquid poured on the ear speaker and it was almost completetly muffled. I followed the video and it worked! It’s been sooooo satisfying!!! Thanks!
Thanks mate. The alcohol along with the 165Hz CZcams video worked perfectly!!! Cheers!
iPhone 12 speaker sound restored plus my son’s 11. Brilliant! Thank you!!
THANK YOU very much! My iPhone 12 is now sounding great again!!
TRIED THIS AND WORKS A TREAT IN SECONDS, MANY THANKS.
Was not expecting to find a solution like this.
I was ready to either go replace the speaker and risk harming the weather sealing, or buying a new phone.
I have an iPhone 11 so upgrading would be fine, but with this fixed, I can replace my battery and go on for another year no problem.
Thank you!
Legend, this has been pissing me off for months always had to use speaker phone to hear people, tried water and a toothbrush with no success. Didn’t have isopropyl alcohol so used acetone instead and it worked. I actually got a new iPhone when this happened to my last iPhone.
Fixed my problem! I thought I needed a speaker replacement but not any more! Thank you!!!
THIS WORKED ON MY PHONE THANK YOU VERY MUCH I NEVER THOUGHT THAT TINY DIRT CAN BLOCK THE AUDIO❤️
This works perfectly. I thought was going to have to spend $40 to $100 to fix this. Thank you guys so much.
Tried it on a 13 pro max, it definitely worked! Within 5 mins the earpiece speaker is back to brand new volume! Huge shoutout to video creator and thanks ALOT !!
Holy crap, worked great! iPhone Xs, Q-tips and isopropyl alcohol, amazing!
DUDE YOU'RE A LIFESAVER!!!!!!! For years I always had to answer phone calls on speaker because I could barely hear the other person thru the ear piece. I didn't have isopropyl alcohol so I used hydrogen peroxide and it worked like a charm. GOD BLESS YOU!
bro what is hydrogen peroxide?
please something we have in our home
Literately been muffled for 2+ years! Thought I would have to replace the entire speaker. Love the Video!!
I very rarely comment on videos but I felt the need to comment on this one. This trick actually worked like a charm!! Cancelling my appointment to the Apple Store this weekend.
Awesome! I’m glad this helped!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I tried everything else and then just came across your video and it worked like a charm. Simply the best!!!!!
Glad it helped!
Brilliant! I got honey spilt on my earpiece. wiping off just pushed it in further but the slots are so small you can't see that. I found an ancient bottle of cassette head/LP cleaner, probably 35/40 years old. but it contained the right alcohol and it worked
I’m so happy I came across this video, it worked! I wish I would’ve recorded a before and after video
wth.......i thought my phone speaker was dying....totally worked....thanx...you rock!
You sir, are a life saver (or phone saver anyhow) .. I could barely hear phone calls and was looking for solutions like this. I didnt have any isopropyl handy but I substituted with Methylated spirits due to its similar cleaning properties and rapid evaporation and it worked like a charm.
Lmao.. it’s working. Amazing. At first I didn’t believe it to clean the speaker with a tooth brush because I believe my phone was clean.. after contacting apple service tech, my problem still persist and suddenly I try clean my speaker with a toothbrush and it works! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
Omg you are a life saver! I didn’t want to pay for repair or get a new one so I tried this and it’s sound is perfectly clear and loud 👏 🥰
WOW!!!! Thank you!!!!! My volume is great again!!!!!!! I appreciate you so so much!
Thanks sooo much for your guide. Super simple to follow. My ip12 speaker was barely audible, 5 mins following your guide and whilst not perfect its soooo much clear and totally usable again. I didn't have the isopropanol but went with standard hand sanitizer which has 70% alcohol as an alternative. still worked as per video. thank you iDoctorUK!
Such a good comment cause I don’t have that other stuff but glad hand sanitizer works
What else can I use if I don’t have any of the two?
It’s not recommended to used any other liquid as they evaporate really slowly, and can flood the speaker. You can use regular tape, gently press the tape against the ear speaker grill with a tooth pick, or your nail (gently). Then slowly remove the tape.
You can repeat this process a couple of times before finishing with the toothbrush.
You can get isopropanol as rubbing alcohol or surgical alcohol from your local pharmacy. That’s what I did, and once clear your speaker will push all the liquid away.
This worked for me on an iPhone11. Assumed it needed a new ear speaker module at first. But tried this. I used nail varnish remover, as didn’t have any alcohol. Not sure if this is a good idea or not but I was desperate and it’s been fine.
Could hear it get louder when I put a few drops on, with the tone playing. Got louder again after a few scrubs with the brush. Took a few goes to get all the embedded crud out. All good now. Thanks.
Worked a treat. So satisfying- thanks!
OMGGGGG!!! I can finally hear!!! This is amazing! Thank you!!!!
Thank you! I really appreciate your help!! Very useful.
Broo best video I seen other wernt a big help your the man brotha thank you 🙏 I was already frustrated thinking of gettin a new phone
Wow! I’ve had a 14 pro max for almost two years. I haven’t had much speaker issues yet, but I’m going to save this video for the future thank you!
Worked immediately, thank you so much!!!
Thanks so much! Just watched your video and cleaned my phone. Almost thought I'd have to get a new phone.
wow worked like a charm just saved me from spending serious money on getting it repaired thanks so much
It actually worked.
This is nice trick and new learning. Thanks for the video
Thank you for this tutorial! That's exactly what I needed to do for my iPhone 13 Pro earpiece. Used a q tip lightly soaked in alcohol to scrub the screen clean while the sound was playing. Thumbs up!
You’re welcome. I’m glad it helped
THANK YOU A LOT.... i thought my 13's speaker was broken and i had no hopes while watching you... I did and it worked thank you a lot i did exactly what you done in the video.... A lot of thanks from turkey
Excellent!
Thank you for making this video 🙏🏽
Worked for me, opted used an alcohol dipped Q-tip to clean mine instead. Required a little scrubbing but eventually worked.
Thx for the tip. 👍🏻
Hi. What is this liquid called again?
I replaced isopropyl alcohol with my contact lenses cleaner liquid and it worked 😊 thanks. Those who don’t have isopropyl alcohol can try this hack.
Thank you so much , the change is inconceivable my speakers are now good as new ❤❤
I was already defeated, but tried this because "who knows" and it worked like a charm on a 12 pro max (using a Q-tip). Thanks mate 🔥
Thank you very much. Completely fixed my earpiece
Hallaluha, it works! I have a Samsung Galaxy phone. I can now hear what people are saying during calls without always having to put em on speaker phone. Thanks so much for this vid info solution!
Thank you. This helped clear out my iphone 13’s ear speaker.
IT WORKED LIKE A CHARM!!
You’re BRILLIANT! 🤩🤩

Great video fixed my earpiece, before I thought it is broken but thanks to you
You sir are a life saver, I had already started to look for a new phone! Toothbrush and nail polish (i was desperate) worked perfect!
I’m glad it worked for you
This was the perfect solution for my low ear speaker volume. I have had to use my phone on speaker for the last week, Thank you!
outstanding solution, thank you so much, worked wonderfully and now can hear calllers.
Thank's for the tip, worked instantly!
Thank you so much after using your way of cleaning now my speaker is good as new i used hand sanitizer tho since I didn’t have the alcohol which you mentioned 🎉😇
This worked for me 100%. Well done!! 🎉
I tested it on my muffled iPhone 12… The difference is, with no chance, enormous. Thank Lord I found this video!
