App Volume: a volume per app

App Volume: a volume per app — the per-app volume control iPhone & iPad have been missing.

Going from a quiet podcast to TikTok? No more eardrum panic. Watching Netflix at full blast while music streams quietly? Each app gets its own volume. Stop mashing the side button every time you switch apps. App Volume uses Apple's official Shortcuts engine — no jailbreak, no warranty risk, no privacy trade.

— WHY IT EXISTS —

iOS has ONE global media volume: whatever you played last sets the level for whatever you open next. Spotify-to-TikTok startles everyone on the bus, YouTube-to-Audible needs another readjust, headphones and speakers need different levels — iOS doesn't fix any of this.

Apple never built this in. So we did — the official way, using Apple's own Shortcuts engine. Legal, safe, no hacks.

— HOW IT WORKS —

1. Create a volume profile and add your apps with their target volumes (TikTok 30%, Podcast 70%, Netflix 80%).
2. The in-app guide walks you through installing our pre-built template in Apple Shortcuts (one-time; every app you add later just works).
3. Follow the in-app animation to set up one Personal Automation — switching apps auto-applies the right volume.
4. Add the widget to Lock Screen, Home Screen, or Control Center — tap to switch the whole profile in one go.

— USE CASES —

• A volume per app — Podcast 70%, music 60%, video 80%. Set once; switching apps auto-applies.
• Night vs day — Build two profiles; tap the widget before bed to drop every app's volume at once.
• Focus vs leisure — Study apps louder, social apps quieter. Tap when you sit down to study.
• Movie time — Tap into a "Cinema" profile when Netflix opens, back to normal when you're done.
• Out vs home — A "Public" profile with everything low; tap before walking into the office or class.

— PRIVACY FIRST —

• No tracking — Firebase Crashlytics for crashes + basic Analytics, that's it
• No microphone, no location, no contacts
• Full transparency — in-app FAQ details exactly how the Shortcuts integration works
• Privacy Policy in Settings → Privacy
• Ready-made profiles — browse Discover and install Bedtime or Silent Game Ads in one tap.
• Global rules — pin an app's volume across every profile; great for games that should always open muted.
• Share your setup — send any profile as a picture + link a friend can import.

— WHY NOT JUST USE iOS SHORTCUTS DIRECTLY? —

You can! But you'd have to:
- Write one Shortcut per app per volume
- Remember which volume goes with which app
- Manually wire every context switch (day, night, focus, leisure)

App Volume does it in one tap — pre-built template handles every app you add later, you never touch Shortcuts again.
