iPhone 12 Pro Does your MagSafe Case change the Lock Sound?

[Caliber26]

I just noticed that the Lock Sound on my phone has changed, but only after I put it in a MagSafe case for the first time since I got it on Friday.

Is this happening on yours as well?

Yeah mines different too. Wtf

 

[Caliber26]

Yeah mines different too. Wtf

So, I removed the case and it was still making the new sound.

I turned the phone off and then powered it back on, the sound is back to normal.

Put the phone back into the case and now it’s making that weird sound again. I can’t imagine it’s a MagSafe “exclusive” because it’s kind of jarring.

Huh... I wondered why this started happening. That definitely explains why it started happening.

I’m having the exact same issue, and so is my wife. Same phone- iPhone 12 Pro 256 VZW iOS 14.1. Lock sound glitches out after every MagSafe charge.

 

[Lammy]

Mine sounds shortened and weird with the MagSafe case too.

 

[DestroXXIV]

Yeah and this is happening for us with and without the case, so I’m not sure the case is related.

I removed my case and then turned my phone off and back on and magically my lock sound is normal again. I put the phone back in the case and it immediately changed the lock sound again. Can't say I'm a fan of the new sound

I don't have a case but the MagSafe charger.
Restarting my iPhone 12 or a soft reset didn't solve the problem
Changing the volume helped.
Strange, looks like a bug.

Happens here too every now and then... Weid. Software or hardware issue!? Rebooting phone seems to help...

I have it happen as well. Installing 14.2 "fixed" it but then it came back as soon as I put the iPhone on the MagSafe charger. Definitely a software bug.

Let’s hope they can solve out this as soon as possible...

Glad I'm not the only one - I have the same issue.

 

[JeepGC]

Mine does the same thing

 

[Teemuhyn]

Okay so this pretty wide spread problem. Let’s hope it’s not releated hardware and Apple can fix this with OS update.

 

[Teemuhyn]

Did the iOS 14.2 fix this? I’m just installing the update.

Unfortunately no.

 

[Teemuhyn]

Unfortunately no.

So it seems. Took the Magsafe cover off and put it on and lock sound went weird. Boot the phone and all is fine again.

Weird problem... Is this after all hardware issue. 🤔

I'm not sure if this is a bug. MagSafe accessories are recognized by the iPhone, and I'm sure Apple intended on this sound change.

Which is sad, because I really enjoy both the leather MagSafe case and the 'normal' lock sound.

But rebooting makes the sound normal again...

 

[dontpokebearz]

Yes, it does. But the bug might actually be that the iPhone isn't checking often enough if a MagSafe case is removed, or that the removal of the case doesn't trigger reverting the sound back to the original sound. That makes sense in my head, let me know if it doesn't translate to typed text lol.

Either way, I don't like the new sound so I hope they change it.

 

[Teemuhyn]

Yeah. But then there is this problem with keyboard sound which changes while you write... It starts almost silent and get louder to the point where it should be....

I can't replicate this issue...

What are you doing where you see this?

 

[slippery-pete]

Sounds odd.

Just typing. This doesn’t happen every time so it can be hard to notice. Others are having this issue too:

iPhone 12 pro lock and keyboard sounds glitch

Hello, my iPhone seems to have a strange problem with the keyboard and lock sounds, it will stay quiet until I start typing then it gets loud. It’s so frustrating, I tried force restart and resetting but it didn’t help with this issue. Did anyone have a similar issue?

There’s more stuff about this over the Internet. Maybe I take my phone to the Service... These aren’t so big issues but maybe I can get a new phone in before the warranty ends. 😅

It would be just nice to know if this is all releated to software or hardware or both? I still bet software as YouTube, Apple Music etc plays just fine. Still, can’t be sure because this wasn’t fixed in iOS 14.2 update.

Also can’t find any info that the lock sound should be different when using magsafe cover. Maybe I remove my cover, boot the phone and use my iPhone 12 Pro ”naked” couble of days and listend if all these sound issues goes away.
