The brush from the other videos didnt work but the que tip did the trick, went from literally almost not hearing nothing to louder than ever. Thank you

[Bubbly]

Tbh I was a bit hesitant to mess around with my iPhone thinking I might end up scratching the earpiece or making it worse 😬 But I tried what you suggested & it worked wonders. I can finally hear everything clearly & there’s no crackling anymore. Thanx a lot mate 👍🏼

[karolhanczarekla]

You saved my phone from having to disassembly it and change the earspeaker. It was cracking and I couldnt almost hear anything. Followed your guide and now it sounds clean and even louder. THANK

[stickdk]

Finally a solution to a common problem. Thank you so much. Apparently apple don't know what to do since they don't tell us about it in their guides. They should hire you. Tip my hat off to you good sir.

After trying EVERYTHING- your video majorly fixed BOTH my 11 Pro Max and my wife’s older 6s. The Q-Tip and some hand sanitizer and blow with a straw, took less than five minutes and WOW we actually have to turn it DOWN now. THANK YOU

If you look close enough you will see the layer of dirt on the ear speaker, try to rub it with the brush until you see it at least partly clean again, aka the dirt is gone. Doesn't have to clean the whole thing as it's difficult (it's small), but as long as part of it is dirt free, even just a thin line, it makes a whole world of difference. Try it out.

I Used a wet q tip and scrubbed. And scrubbed and scrubbed. My speaker didn’t looked clogged up but the more I scrubbed I started notice oh small holes and I kept going and now it sounds perfect! I used a super small amount of soapy water and it seemed to go much faster! Fixed it within 5 minutes!!! thank you!!!

[muhammadadil]

I just tried with Alcohol Prep Pad which has 70%. I rubbed it very well and used the cotton to clean the earpiece. Finally I used the compressed air and it worked. Thanks for the video.

[far]

yes! result the cotton bud (in my case I used a wet wipe) worked

[manval]

The q tip worked for me!!!! I’ve been struggling for years. Thank

[alihichem]

After 3 months of thinking my phone was done for, this simple trick worked. 10/10 thanks for the video.

I watched and tried several methods to remove sticky dust from my iPhone earpiece but didn’t work, and I watched this video and I followed the same method and amazed to see that all sticky dust came out of my earpiece, it seriously worked and I started hearing clear voice once again. Thank you so much. Love from India❤️

[szabolcssimon]

Thank you so much! The swab thing did the job perfectly, and without canned air, only the swab and after a little bit of alcohol (very very little amount drop in the cotton, to remove all the leftover grease and dirt.) Then clean swab again. And this also works on the bottom speaker too. If you dont have canned air like me, i recommend double sided elastic tape, cover the bottom speaker holes and with a toothpick just gently push the tape inside the little holes, (Really gently, and not with force! You dont want to break the grills and/or push in the dirt.) Do a few rotation moves carefully on each hole with a now “tape covered” pick, and pull off the tape. You will see, how much dirt come out from this tiny holes. This method will improve the sound quality and fix the quiet speaker problem to. Again, Thanks for the video!

You’re a lifesaver! Just the cotton swab did the trick. I did get some sauce on there and it made it almost impossible to hear out of, thought that cleaning it this way would just push the material into the phone and make it worse but it’s loud and clear and most of it came off!

[KOH]

I’ve watched so many videos regarding this issue, but only your solution worked for me. Thank you! 👍

[TheJsingh]

Thank you for this video. I was worried it was a hardware issue but I just cleaned it with a cue tip and the sound from the earpiece is loud again.

[PEL_man]

Worked beautifully on iPhone XR, thx! Do you have recs for cleaning the bottom speakers?

[rakeeliahlynch]

THIS LITERALLY WORKED WONDERS! I didnt think the qtip would work but it worked INSTANTLY for me THANK YOU SO MUCH❤️

[candycane]

omg thank you so much for this tip 🙌🏽i had to either use my car bluetooth or loudspeakers because i couldn’t hear my callers

[sunshinemitchell]

Thank you so much. I missed with the settings for like 3 weeks now. Cleaned the speaker with a q-tip like you said. Would have to put my calls on speaker because I couldn’t hear. I thought for sure I was loosing my hearing. Thought I might even need a Jitterbug.Now I can hear my callers.
