Use mono audio or adjust audio balance

If you keep one earbud out to stay aware of your surroundings, or if you have hearing loss in one ear, use Mono audio to combine stereo channels into a single earbud so no audio cues or instruments are lost.

If you have uneven hearing loss, adjust Audio balance to increase volume in one ear relative to the other.

  1. Go to Settings > Accessibility > Audio adjustment.
  2. To combine channels when playing audio, turn Mono audio on .
  3. To adjust left/right balance, drag the Audio balance slider.
