Why does my iPhone 5s play music out loud, even on silent?

When the switch on the side of my phone is switched to silent (red bar showing), my phone will still play music, videos, or sounds from apps out loud unless I turn the volume all the way down using the volume buttons.
I thought the silent switch was supposed to prevent any sounds.

Its broken. For some reason, all iphones break like this. I would switch to a samsung when you have a chance.

You have to use the volume buttons on the side, turn it down when you open a music app.

As far as the music & audio from videos, that's normal, but audio from apps its not supposed to do. No idea why if that is indeed the case.

My iPhone 5s is stuck on silent no ring tone no text tone no tones it has audio everywhere else but no tones the meters all the way over to the right the button on the side is up not showing red but just I have no sound

It wot play out loud or een let me turn up the volume through the side buttons, but it will when headphones are in so i know the buttons arent broken. Any suggestions? Also, the speakers work on calls or for the ringtone.
  • Why does my iPhone keep switching from Silent mode to ringer? When I set my phone down it keeps vibrating. Not plugged in or anything. It goes from silent mode to ringer every 5 seconds. What can I do to fix it? It's so annoying
  • Why does music show up on my iphone even though i deleted it? I deleted an album off of my phone through itunes when it was plugged into my computer and when it's connected to itunes the album doesn't show up but when my phone isn't connected the album is there and the songs will play. Is there anyway to get the album off of my phone because it's annoying?
