Getting the Device Volume

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

Hi there,

Is there a way to get the device’s current volume?

I thought I had the answer with audio.getVolume() but that’s a software based volume that the app can get and set as far as I can tell.

I basically need to check if the user has their volume muted or low and display a message letting them know they need to turn it on / up to use the app properly.

Thanks,

You could play with the secret AudioSession properties.
