Part 1. Check the Mute Switch to Fix iPhone Text Sound Not Working
The mute switch on the side of the phone certainly provides us with great convenience, but it can also cause the iPhone no sound on text problem. Though ridiculous as it sounds, we might forget to switch off the mute switch and wonder why there is no sound even the volume is maximized. If this is the case, just switch off the mute switch and turn up the volume by pressing the "Volume Up" button.
Part 2. Adjust the Sound Settings
The general sound system and the ringer sound system are independent of each other in a sense. That means while you turn the volume to the max in apps, the sound of the ring tone and text tone may still be 0. If that is the case, iPhone will not ring or alert you. In addition, when the text tone is set as "None", there will naturally be no alert when you receive the texts. What you need to do is to follow the steps below to correct the sound settings.
Step 1: Go to the "Settings" on your iPhone and then tap the "Sound & Haptics" option;
Step 2: Slide the "Ringer and Alerts" until the sound is loud enough;
Step 2: Tap the "Text Tone" option and select any text tone but the "None" option.
Part 3. Adjust the Notification Settings
Many users may not remember turning off the notification of the "Messages". You can fix the iPhone no sound on text issue by adjusting the notification settings.
Step 1: Go to the "Settings" on your iPhone and scroll down to the "Notification" option. Tap it;
Step 2: You will see a list of apps. Scroll down to the "Messages" option and tap on it;
Step 3: Toggle on the "Allow Notification" switch;
Step 4: On the same page, find the "Sound" option and enter in. You will see a list of tones. Select any of them except for the "None" option.
Part 4. Turn Off the Do Not Disturb
When iPhone is in the "Do Not Disturb" mode, it will not produce any notification or alert sounds, including the text message alerts. Therefore, make sure you turn off the crescent moon icon in the control center. If the text sound only disappears when you receive messages from a certain group of people, you should turn off the Do Not Disturb for the specific contacts. To do it, follow the steps below.
Step 1: Go to the "Messages" on your iPhone;
Step 2: Browse the list and find the contacts with the crescent moon icon;
Step 3: Swipe the contact to the left and tap the "Show Alerts".
