Re: Volume?

The volume on my iPhone 5 and now 5S have always seemed loud to me, therefore I can't really say it has gotten any louder since the iOS 7 update.

Yep. Crazy. :p

Are you using the same ring and/or alert tones? Or did you pick from among the new ones that came with iOS7? The new ones seem to be "fuller" in that there's more to hear... so the same volume level seems louder, while physically - it's not... kind of like when you're listening to a dramatic TV show with dialog only and have a comfortable listening volume set on the tv.... and when the commercials come on, it seems like the volume got turned up.

I haven't noticed a difference. But I'm still using my old default ring tone.

Seems like the tones in iOS 7 may have been remastered or pushed up a few db (decibels). The lock button sound definitely has reverb on it and it sounds like a different sample than what was in previous versions of iOS.

Apple already mentioned that during the iPhone event that the ringtones have been remastered...
