Volume of iPhone gets automatically lower
When playing music out loud on my phone I tend to skip songs from time to time. But every time I pick up my phone the volume gets automatically lowered. It took me some research to understand that this may be caused by "attention awareness" but even after turning every possible setting regarding that off, my phone is still deciding to lower the volume for me.
This behaviour is implicit and very annoying. Also where is the information about this behaviour? You could have ask the user on their first "attention awareness interaction" for consent, clearly state functionality & avoid annoyed users.
Also I want to state out that the most annoying thing about that "feature" is that the automatic adjustment is not synced with the volume control. This means you can't turn the volume back up anymore because the "attention awareness" is setting an uncontrollable limiter (you can only lower further). To resolve this issue I always have to restart the app where the sound is coming from (in my case Apple Music).
I beg you to remove this limiter and just lower the current volume so I am at least able to turn it up without restarting apps. And fix the setting for that case when turning "attention awareness" off.
Thanks.
