How to directly switch to speaker-in-call without the Speaker Option on iPhone

Over the last few months, there has been a rather strange and infuriating bug that is going on with iPhones. However, this bug isn’t being talked about enough. When you receive a call and you want to switch over to the speaker during a call, then you will need to simply tap on the speaker button via the direct flow feature. However, this flow seems to be currently broken and users are facing issues. In this guide, you will get to know how to directly switch to speaker-in-call without the Speaker Option on iPhone.

iPhone users facing speaker-in-call issues

When you’re switching over to the speaker phone during a call, you will have to take the direct flow route. However, this flow seems to be currently broken. If you tap on the speaker button, it’ll bring out the Speaker Options menu from where you’ll need to select Speakers. This flow shouldn’t only be opened when you’ve got an additional Bluetooth speaker or earbuds connected as at this point, you’ll have the option of switching between other audio sources.

Since currently you don’t have any other audio sources, the device automatically should be switching over to the speaker upon tapping on this option. Unfortunately, this is no longer the case. But there is a workaround that you’ll get to know about below.
