User level: Level 1 (6 points)I’m in 18 pro max and the latest ios (27.0) , it was working just fine till I got on a web conference. Both speakers are making a popping or static sounds, I’m sure I didn’t dunk it in water or anything. Case was removed and I brushed against it gently, nothing happened.
I tried opening the call on my iPad (I think it’s on 16.something version) and it’s definitely from my iPhone.
Anyone else? Is it the software update?

Hi there
Please try this
Force Restart: Turn your iPhone completely off and back on via Settings > General > Shutdown to refresh the operating system and clear temporary audio glitches.
Check Voice Isolation: If the popping only happens on calls or conferences, try toggling off Voice Isolationin your Control Center mic modes, as high-processing audio filters can sometimes conflict with new iOS builds.
Disconnect Bluetooth: Turn off Bluetooth temporarily to ensure the audio isn't trying to route through a glitchy external accessory or wireless headset.
Reset Sound Settings: Go to Settings > Sounds & Haptics and move the sliders back and forth, or test standard media playback outside of calls to isolate if it's app-specific.

Has the solutionworked for you ?
I still have the problem on my iPhone 18 Pro (not max)
