Imagine you are sitting in your room and suddenly you hear a strange sound coming from your device. IPhone Yours. The experience will certainly be like a scary nightmare, especially if it happens to you more than once. Well, it seems that this problem has begun to spread among a number of iPhone users. Let's learn in the following lines about the phenomenon of mysterious sounds on the iPhone. We will also discuss the reasons behind these scary sounds.
Mysterious sounds phenomenon on iPhone
Story 1: It all started a few days ago when a Reddit user posted that he heard a sound coming from his iPhone. It sounded like someone was driving and talking on a phone with someone else. Of course, it was scary, especially after he checked that there were no apps running in the background.
But the conversation he was hearing took a turn for the darker when the Reddit user heard that the person talking while driving had crashed their car. Then, within seconds, there was silence and he never heard that voice again. But it didn’t stop there. Two days later, the same user heard someone else yelling profanities during a phone call.
Story 2: Another user shared his experience yesterday. This time the sounds were normal, no profanity or incidents. Just the sounds of someone talking to his coworkers. Of course, the user checked for any background apps or anything else that could be causing this, but found nothing.
Glitch or strange phenomenon?
Why do some iPhone users allow inexplicable sounds even though there is no call or apps running in the background? Let's explore the logical reasons behind this mysterious phenomenon.
First possibility: There may be a privacy issue that leads to other users' voices being heard. If things get out of hand, Apple will announce it and release an immediate update to address this loophole that concerns its users' privacy. But so far, there are only a limited number of users who have reported these voices.
Second possibility: iOS 18 bug, iPhone users have been experiencing a lot of issues installing OS updates in the past. So this might be the most likely scenario. A system issue could be causing a random sound or YouTube video to play in the background, or perhaps a malicious app has exploited a loophole in the system and started playing ads or videos without your knowledge.
Other possibilities:
- Sometimes, some ads start on Safari and the sound may continue even after you leave the browser.
- Your iPhone may be connected to something without you knowing via Bluetooth.
- It's possible that Siri heard something from the TV that sounded like the words you activate like "Siri" or "Hey Siri." So she turned on something that caused those mysterious sounds.

It happened to me more than once that I heard a video play by itself without any intervention from me.. as I connected my iPhone to a Bluetooth headset.. and suddenly I hear a song.. and sometimes a voice.. similar to a news bulletin!!
I check the iPhone and I can't find anything working to stop it!! That is, there is no audio material you can see the stop button from the lock screen!!
It seems to me that it is a glitch in the iOS18 system.. as the problem started recently with the system upgrade.. and my phone is iPhone 14 Pro Max.
Hi Abdullah Al Sulaiti 🙋♂️, It seems that your iPhone has been exposed to mysterious sounds! 🎶📣 Make sure that all applications are closed and nothing is running in the background. It could also be related to Bluetooth, try turning it off and on again. If the problem persists, you may need to reset the settings. Don't worry, we are here to protect your privacy and digital safety! 🛡️📱
Honestly, it has never happened to me
I updated my device to 18.1.1 and the sounds still persist
Hi Tariq 🙋♂️, You can try closing all background apps and restarting your device. If the issue persists, it might be a good idea to contact Apple Support for assistance. And don't forget to keep your device safe by keeping it away from anything mysterious that makes noises! 😄📱🔊
Since I bought my iPhone SE, the second generation, every time I open the camera, a very small, simple sound comes out. I know that the camera is open, and any application that needs the camera makes this small sound. I know that the camera is currently open. This has become a feature for me, especially since we are blind. I don’t know if it is a defect in the device, but I have a feature. Every time I open the camera, a very, very, very small sound comes out that you can only hear if you are close to the phone’s speaker.
Hello Ali Hussein Al-Marfadi 🙋♂️, It seems that your iPhone SE 2nd generation has an artistic spirit and wants to present a special audio show! 😄 But seriously, this sound you hear may be caused by the continuous operation of the camera. Since this feature is not available in iOS, this may be caused by a simple glitch in the device. It is preferable to restart the device and if the problem persists, it may be better to take it to an Apple Service Center for an examination. Always ready to serve you! 🍏🎵
I put all my devices on airplane mode when I don't need the internet!
Nothing will change the situation. Flight mode does not prevent eavesdropping or communication 100%.
☹️ A lot of these things happen here. Everything is monitored by intelligence, the Arab League, and the Security Council.
Every time someone calls me, I hear whispering, ringing, and shhhhh shhhh.
Hi, I haven't updated my iPhone to 18 and I was having a video chat and suddenly a voice conversation between two people appeared that I heard from all parties, although it was not understood. This is unacceptable.
Hi Abu Adeeb! 😊 I made sure you are still on iOS 17 and not 18, right? This problem you are experiencing may be due to a glitch in previous updates. 📱🔄 Don't worry, Apple is always working to solve these problems in new updates. If the problem persists, you can contact Apple Support to file a complaint. Don't forget to always keep your device updated! 🍏👍
It is not permissible to ask for mercy except for Muslims
Hello, I am not facing any problems and I do not hear any strange sounds and everything is fine, so what should I do? 😊 😳
Hello, I have a 15 Pro Max 256 GB and my wife has a 15 Pro Max 512 GB. When I restart the two phones, a sound comes out from my wife’s phone when the apple appears, but this sound does not come out from my phone!
This feature must be enabled and has been working since iPhone 14.
Settings > Accessibility > Audio & Visual. Turn on Power On & Off Sounds
May God have mercy on the era of the founder Steve Jobs.
Apple is in an exponential decline, the effects of which will be evident in the coming years if things continue this way.
During his reign, Apple would not release hardware or applications until they were completely sure of their quality, and Apple fans would joke about Windows and the “Blue Screen of Death.”
Now, Apple's phones, headphones and software are all suffering and the golden reputation has gone down the drain, especially with the lack of innovation and creativity after the focus shifted to milking the customer.
Hi Dr. Rami Jabbarni 🙋♂️, I understand your feelings towards Apple lately. However, let's remember that every company goes through ups and downs. Apple is undoubtedly facing major challenges right now, but that doesn't mean they've lost their ability to innovate and create. They just have to adapt to new changes and circumstances. There's always a light at the end of the tunnel, even if that light is the illuminated Apple logo! 😄🍏
Yes indeed, I was going to comment with this when I read it. For your information, it is not permissible to ask for mercy except for Muslims, as God Almighty said, “It is not for the Prophet and those who have believed to ask forgiveness for the polytheists. Even if they were relatives after me, it would not have become clear to them that they are companions of Hellfire.”
Good evening, I did not hear any strange or mysterious sounds from my iPhone 18 Pro Max, and after I updated my device to IOS 18.1 and IOS XNUMX, I did not hear any strange or mysterious sounds.
Good evening, Mohamed 🌹🌙, God bless the iPhone 15 Pro Max, a device that words cannot describe 😍. The best thing is that you did not encounter any problems with strange sounds after updating to iOS 18 and 18.1, it seems that your iPhone loves you very much and does not want to scare you 😂💙. Enjoy your experience with the iPhone and do not hesitate to ask any questions in the future!
Good evening
I did not hear any strange or mysterious sounds from my iPhone 15 Pro Max and after I updated my device I did not hear any strange or mysterious sounds
To correct, listen and not allow any word of the article
I usually don't know, maybe because I keep my phone away from my sleep
Unimportant article :)
I am afraid of this phenomenon, what should I do?
just kidding just kidding
Hi Saud 😄, don't worry, things are not that scary at all. So far, these are just isolated cases and we don't know exactly what the cause is. It could be an operating system bug or a privacy loophole. But as you know, Apple is always quick to fix such issues. Just make sure to always update your device and follow us to get the latest news 🍏💪👍.
I hear like a screen off tone and the screen is actually off
It was repeated several times.
Hello, Fahmi Al-Qasimi 🙋♂️, it seems that your iPhone loves mystery and puzzles like a Hollywood movie 😄. But don't worry, the reason may be a simple error in the settings or operating system. Try updating iOS to the latest version, and make sure to close all open applications in the background. If the problem persists, you may have to visit an Apple Service Center for a deeper examination. Don't forget to always keep backup copies of your data before performing any updates or maintenance on your device. 😊👍📱
Excuse me if I went off topic, brothers in iPhone Islam, I have a watch and I updated it to 11.2 beta and my battery health dropped from 99% to 90%. After searching, I found that it is a general problem with this update. My question is, can Apple solve the problem and return the battery health to its previous percentage? Thank you.
Hi Mohammed, 😊
First, you don't need permission to ask any questions, we are always here to help. 🙌
Don't worry about your watch's battery health deteriorating after updating to iOS 11.2 beta. These issues are normal in beta versions and Apple often fixes them in final releases. 🍏🔧
If the issue persists after the final update is released, you can contact Apple Support or visit your nearest Apple Store.
But always remember, brother Mohammed, “The Bright Apple” for always making efforts to make your experience better! 😉🍎
Peace be upon you. Sometimes, when I call someone, I hear the sound of a car, like a toy car. I thought it was a problem with the telecommunications company.
Hello Mohamed Knight Shark 🙋♂️, It seems that you are facing a mysterious problem similar to what was mentioned in the article! But do not worry, it may be very simple. There may be an application open in the background or perhaps an unknown Bluetooth connection, or even Siri may have misunderstood a command and started playing something. 😅 I advise you to close applications running in the background and check Bluetooth connections. If the problem persists, you may need to update to the latest version of iOS. 📱🔄
Honestly, I did not understand anything from this article. If possible, I would like you to clarify. As for the sounds, I do not know what you mean. For example, do you mean that when you put on the headphones, there are strange sounds or something? I did not understand this problem.
Hello Saad Al-Dosari18 🍏! As for our article, we are talking about a strange phenomenon that happened to some iPhone users, as they started hearing incomprehensible sounds coming from their devices for no apparent reason. These sounds may be like call sounds, movies, etc., but without there being a real call or video running on the device. We point out here the hypothesis that the malfunction may be in the iOS XNUMX operating system, or perhaps a privacy feature error, or even an unknown connection via Bluetooth. So, you are not alone in this problem 😉. We are waiting for an update from Apple to fix this problem.
Good evening
This happened last week.
As I heard these strange noises I expected there to be a browser running in the background.
This happened three times.. and when the last program was updated, the sounds disappeared for two days and then reappeared, but somewhat faintly, but still noticeable.
A question, Minv, and I hope you answer it. Can an apple discover what's inside it?
Hi Sultan Mohammed 🙋♂️, Of course, an apple can't see what's inside it, it's just a fruit! 😅 But if you mean Apple, it uses many advanced technologies to check and update its devices. This includes firmware, operating software, and actual hardware. However, Apple is not able to "see" everything without the user's permission. Privacy rights are very important in the world of Apple! 🍏🔒
Good evening to you
Personally, I wanted to talk about this topic a while ago about hearing sounds from the iPhone. I actually heard them, but I did not understand the words because they were only for a second or two.
It happened after updating to 18
Now after this article I realize that the problem is not only mine but also others.
I confirm that anyone who has this problem will notice hearing voices.
I won't hide from you that I was worried about spying from applications or downloading something that would not allow spying on me.
In general, I will wait for the new developments in this topic...
Hi Abu Walid 🙋♂️, Thank you for sharing your exciting experience with us! Yes, the things you mentioned are indeed mysterious and some may be concerned about them. But let me reassure you, this problem is not due to spying or downloading malicious apps. This may be due to a bug in iOS 18 as mentioned in the article. And don't worry, if there is a real privacy issue, Apple will take care of these matters quickly and will issue an update to solve the problem. Enjoy the mysterious sounds until the update comes 😅📱🔊
No this, no this, no this
I heard sounds after connecting the cable to the car through the CarPlay port
Hello Phone Islam! 🍎 It seems that you have encountered an audio adventure with CarPlay! Don't worry, it could be very simple. 🎧 These sounds could be caused by a specific application running in the background or even a voice message that was played by mistake. Make sure to close all applications and restart your device, and if the problem persists, it might be a good idea to check for available updates for your device or even visit an Apple service center. Always remember, if there is something mysterious, Apple will find it! 😄🕵️♂️
