YouTube is the most popular video-sharing platform in the world with millions of people using it every day from searching to watching and even downloading their favorite videos.

If you face a situation where you have no voice on YouTube videos, you’ll be wondering what is wrong and thinking which tool can save you from the frustration and take care of everything for you. Don’t worry! All feasible solutions are just shown down here.
How to Fix Video No Sound on YouTube iPhone
When playing video on YouTube and can’t hear a thing, you’ll be asking yourself why and how? Here are some methods that will have to be performed to eliminate every possibility and fix the YouTube video with no sound issue.
1. Adjust Volume Settings
You need to ensure that your iPhone is not set to mute. To check this on iPhone you need to see the accident toggle button on the side of the phone used to set the “Ring/Silent” mode.
Now increase the volume either from within the settings app or from the sound buttons on the smartphone to see if the video starts audio playback as well or not.
You also need to ensure that inside the YouTube application the volume button is not set to mute because while the iPhone seems fine and works for everything else and only YouTube is causing the trouble, it can most probably be the volume settings on the app itself that need to be changed to hear the video sound.
2. Restart your Smartphone
If the volume settings didn’t solve your problem, you can be facing a mobile system issue. This can have several reasons, either your iPhone device while swapping from headphones to speaker volume got puzzled due to a software glitch or the sound system of the iPhone is completely unable to activate the sound card for audio playing.
You can restart your iPhone by holding the power button for a few seconds and slide the red button to power off the device. Wait for a few seconds to let the device shut down properly and then press the power button for a few seconds to power on the device again.
3. Update or Reinstall the YouTube app
If you are using a YouTube app for video playing and facing the no sound on the iPhone issue or YouTube error, you need to see if an update is available for the app because various errors faced by users are continually resolved through updating by the developers. And if this is so, the developers would probably update the app to resolve the issue you might be facing right now.
Else, you can re-install the app after deleting it and then installing it from Apple App Store. This will resolve any mobile-specific issues you were facing because there can be situations where a specific model can have issues with the app. Straightaway checks the app to see if the problem is fixed.
4. Reinstall or try another browser
Trying to play a YouTube video through a browser window on your iPhone and can’t hear a thing. You can attempt one of these solutions:
Open the browser settings and check if the sound settings of the browser are set to mute. And if they are, unmute the browser settings and check if you can hear the sound of YouTube videos.
If there’s an update to the app available on the app store, you need to update the browser app as it can also improve video and audio streaming, an update generally includes bug fixes and app upgrades to increase performance.
Browsers utilize plugins and extensions to play YouTube videos, so if either of them fails the YouTube videos will not play seamlessly. YouTube uses an HTML5 video player in almost every popular web browser and if the browser is not able to load the video player properly, it can cause problems in the playback.
A straightforward solution to these problems can be restarting your web browser and opening the YouTube video to realize if the problem continues or is resolved.
If it isn’t resolved, you can either reinstall the same browser or install an alternative that you feel might be better than the one already installed.
5. Clear browser and app data
Browsing data consists of browsing sessions, web pages history, cache, cookies, etc. When this data amasses it can hinder the smooth browsing experience or can even result in issues like no voice on YouTube.
Clear cache and cookies that may be causing the problem, select the options menu in the browsers like Chrome or Firefox, click on ‘history’ and then select ‘Clear browsing data’.
You will get two tabs — Basic, with options to clear the cache, cookies, or the browsing history, while under the Advanced tab you will be able clear saved passwords, and site settings.
When you select the options, press the ‘clear data’ button and the browser is like new. Reopen the browser, open YouTube, and see if the sound has resumed.
Still, you can clear YouTube app data from the mobile settings, which will wipe out any issues with the application and it will be as you just installed.
To delete app data cache, go to ‘Settings’ on your iPhone, then ‘General’ and then ‘iPhone Storage’.
Now scroll down to the bottom and you’ll see apps, select the YouTube app and take a look at the ‘Documents & Data’ associated with the app and you can delete it from here.
6. Adobe Flash Player
However, most of the browsers and apps are not using Adobe Flash Player for streaming video, audio, multimedia, and RIA (Rich Internet Application) anymore.
Certain older devices may still be employing the technology to stream video and audio on apps and browsers which can result in problems like audio playback issues.
There can be a problem in the installed version and an update might be available for installation, which can be checked on Adobe’s website.
