Is your iPhones ear speaker quiet or muffled and you can barely hear people on calls? In this video I will show you this neat little hack for cleaning iPhone ear speakers.
We identified the 165hz tone as the most suitable sound to thoroughly clean iPhone top speaker. when combined with a little isopropyl alcohol this is an effective trick to really get all the gunk out of the little mesh at the top of the phone.
I hope you enjoy the videos as much as I do making them. Thank you for watching!

    • It’s not recommended to used any other liquid as they evaporate really slowly, and can flood the speaker. You can use regular tape, gently press the tape against the ear speaker grill with a tooth pick, or your nail (gently). Then slowly remove the tape. You can repeat this process a couple of times before finishing with the toothbrush.

    • You can get isopropanol as rubbing alcohol or surgical alcohol from your local pharmacy. That’s what I did, and once clear your speaker will push all the liquid away.
