Adjusting World Volume

World Volume controls the loudness of environmental sound. You can adjust World Volume specifically to your liking in any setting or situation. When first powering on your product, World Volume is enabled so that sounds are amplified at a slightly higher level than if you were not using your product.

To turn up or down World Volume:

Using the Bose Hear app

  • In the app, move the World Volume wheel above 0 to amplify environmental sounds or below 0 to reduce environmental sounds
  • To adjust World Volume in both ears individually, use the Ear Balance control.
Tip: For full noise cancellation, turn World Volume all the way down, or press the Mute button in the Bose Hear app. When you reach max or minimum World Volume, your headphones beep.

Using the inline remote

On the side of the inline remote, use the World Volume buttons to amplify or reduce environmental noise.

Tip: For full noise cancellation, turn World Volume all the way down, or press the Mute button in the Bose Hear app. When you reach max or minimum World Volume, your headphones beep. You can also simultaneously press both World Volume buttons to scroll through the hearing modes.
