FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Short answers first. Each one links to a full guide with screenshots.

How do I make a video louder on iPhone?

Open Increase Volume, import the video from Photos (or share it to the app), drag the Volume multiplication slider up to ×10, tap Boost Volume, compare Original and Processed, then tap Download Processed. The louder copy lands in Photos or Files and plays loud on every device.

Can I make a voice memo louder after recording it?

Yes. Share the memo from Voice Memos to Increase Volume (or save it to Files first), boost it up to ×10, and save the processed file. Voice Memos' own Enhance Recording only cleans noise during playback; it does not create a louder file.

Learn more →

Does Increase Volume work on MP3 and other audio files, not just video?

Yes. It boosts MP3, M4A and other common audio files as well as MP4 and MOV videos. Most iPhone volume booster apps only accept video; this one is listed as an Audio & Music Booster and shows the track name, size and duration before you boost.

Why is my iPhone screen recording so quiet?

iOS captures app audio at a conservative level, and Bluetooth headphones or a low in-app volume make it quieter still. You cannot fix a finished recording with system settings, but Increase Volume can multiply its audio up to ×10 and save a new file.

Learn more →

Will boosting the volume make my video sound distorted?

Only if you push a recording that is already near its ceiling. Start around ×3 to ×5, use the Original/Processed toggle to listen before saving, and switch on Improve Audio Quality for speech. Quiet sources usually take ×5 to ×10 cleanly.

Learn more →

How much louder than iMovie can it go?

iMovie on iPhone caps clip volume at roughly 500%. Increase Volume goes to ×10 (1000%), works without building a project, and also accepts audio-only files that iMovie cannot open.

Learn more →

Can I boost a video straight from the Photos app?

Yes. Open the video in Photos, tap Share, choose Increase Volume, and a project is created instantly. Boost it, then Download Processed to save the louder copy back to Photos.

Learn more →

Does Increase Volume make my iPhone speaker louder?

No. It makes the audio inside a file louder and saves a new copy. If a recording is too quiet even at maximum system volume, boosting the file is the fix; the app cannot change the speaker's hardware limit or system-wide volume.

Learn more →

Is Increase Volume free? What does the subscription unlock?

The download is free and includes a free trial. Continued unlimited boosting is unlocked with a subscription or a one-time lifetime plan; current prices are shown on the App Store listing. Processing always happens on your iPhone.

Is my audio uploaded anywhere?

No. The boost is computed on your iPhone and the result is saved locally through the standard iOS share sheet. There is no account and no server-side processing step.
