    I don’t think I’ve ever had a phone that does that. Is that an iPhone thing?

        Weird! I’m on Android 14 and I can blast the volume as loud as I want without any sort of notification. All it does is the volume slider turns red when it goes beyond like 80% or something, but it doesn’t say anything to me about it. I have a Samsung phone. My last phone was a Motorola phone and I don’t recall it nagging me either.

      It’s a legal requirement in Europe I believe. I’m not sure we’ll get fewer deaf people that way. We’ll see.

    There’s an app for that: https://github.com/zacharee/Tweaker

    You’ll need to use adb to grant special permissions that an app can’t request on its own.

    adb shell pm grant com.zacharee1.systemuituner android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
    adb shell pm grant com.zacharee1.systemuituner android.permission.PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS
    adb shell pm grant com.zacharee1.systemuituner android.permission.DUMP

    Nobody is saying nothing, so everybody is saying something, or at least that’s what is sounds like with tinnitus.

    This makes me irrationally angry. I don’t need my phone babysitting my ears and the notification doesn’t happen nearly frequently enough to matter anyway. It can be a distraction, especially while driving, i always think i need to pull over to answer a call but nope, just a half assed hearing protection measure.

    Does anyone know of any apps or ways to disable the feature on android?

      Ideally disable all the nanny features and block forced updates. If I fucking want an update, I will prompt it myself.

    Very annoying when using a speaker with its own volume. Because of course I want to have phone loud for optimal signal, and set the volume at the end of the chain instead of amplifying weak signal.

    This fucking thing must be a kernel level thing, because even AOSP ROMs can’t get rid of it.

      I have never once seen this message I’m my adult life, using Pixel phones since the pixel 1.

      Although I do try to be respectful of my ears since I have fairly loud tinnitus already so maybe I just don’t listen to music loud enough to trigger the message.

        It’s just a qualifier to insinuate that no one cares about a certain topic and then there’s that one person that brings it up out of no where.

          Shouldn’t it be “everybody: <blank>” then?

          Nobody: <blank> means that everyone has some feelings about it.

          If it’s Nobody and the second line applying to the same thing then the nobody part is false, because the second bit implies that at least one person feels that way.

          I just don’t get it, logically.

            “Nobody has said anything” sounds a bit better than “everyone has said nothing”, which is about how it should be interpreted.

    my phone at 80% vol is fairly quiet with my earbuds.

    I’ve also noticed that this warning’s timing is quite random.

    I always listen to music on my commutes and they’ve been the same commute for 2 years and Ive only seen this warning like four or five times completely out of the blue.

    meanwhile i wish mine would still warn me. sometimes i pop in my IEMs and then press play, and my phone is like “you were full volume with the bluetooth speaker, does this mean… you want the IEMs full blast, too?”

      This is the real issue. The same volume is totally different on different devices. If they want to implement this feature correctly they need to measure the actual output of the headphones.

      Mine warn me only when it’s purposeful. As you say, if I change output devices, and the sound is too loud, it says nothing. It literally only interferes with me doing something I’m purposefully choosing to do, and failing to protect me from shit I’m doing accidentally.

    These warnings gets so annoying on iOS too. It’s as if Apple doesn’t understand that AUX and high impedance headphones are a thing and need to be put in max volume to even be audible. At least there’s a way to disable it in Settings

      If you have high impedance headphones and you’re not using a headphone preamp you’re not getting everything you paid for out of those cans.
