TechnologyHow to Restore the Volume Slider on iPhone Lock Screen
Apple removed the volume slider from the iPhone lock screen with iOS 16 in 2022, forcing users to rely on physical volume buttons that adjust sound in fixed steps. The slider has returned as an option in iOS 18.2 and later, hidden under Accessibility settings. Enabling "Always Show Volume Control" allows finer volume adjustments without unlocking the phone, useful when the iPhone is on a desk or mounted.
