If you’re like most people, you probably rely on your iPhone’s ringer to alert you to incoming calls and messages. However, if your ringer is turned off, you may miss important communications. Fortunately, turning on your ringer is quick and easy. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to do it, along with some helpful tips.
First, you need to locate the Ringer switch on your iPhone. It’s located on the left side of the device, above the volume buttons. The switch should be in the “down” position if your ringer is turned off. To turn on your ringer, simply slide the switch to the “up” position. You’ll know your ringer is on when you see a small orange dot next to the switch.
If you want to customize your ringer settings, you can do so in the Settings app. Open the Settings app and tap “Sounds & Haptics.” Under the “Ringer and Alerts” section, you can adjust the volume of your ringer, as well as choose a different ringtone. You can also enable or disable vibrate for incoming calls.
