Apple’s website has a whole host of important warnings you shouldn’t ignore, including a common popup you may have seen before.

If you like listening to music on your iPhone, it’s likely you’ve seen a sound level warning popup in the past.
These are easy to dismiss but Apple’s website explains exactly why you shouldn’t.
Apple states: “Listening to sound at high volumes may damage your hearing.
“Background noise, as well as continued exposure to high volume levels, can make sounds seem quieter than they actually are.
“Turn on audio playback and check the volume before inserting anything in your ear.”
Apple watches out for your health by letting iPhone monitor how often you’re listening to loud music.
Apple explains: “If you listen to loud headphone audio for long enough to affect your hearing, iPhone automatically sends you a notification that you should turn down the volume.
“After you receive a notification, the next time you plug in your headphones or connect them using Bluetooth, your volume is automatically set to a lower level. You can turn the volume up again if you choose.”
