Spotify playbackmanager volume is very low

Question

I am developing one iOS app which is using the Spotify API . I have an issue regarding the SPPlaybackManager volume. The sound is very low when I am playing the Spotify song. Could any one please tell me how to increase the sound.(In original Spotify iOS app they are accessing the iPhone device sound i.e if you increase the slider value system volume also increasing)

[self.playbackManager setVolume:self.volumeSlider.value];

Are you setting an AVAudioSession category? Are you playing non-spotify audio that is the right volume? — Rhythmic Fistman, Mar 27 '14 at 11:26

Try setting AVAudioSessionCategoryPlayback like in this answer: http://stackoverflow.com/a/7619816/22147 — Rhythmic Fistman, Mar 27 '14 at 11:32

SPPlaybackManager's volume is relative to the iOS device's media playback volume, so if that's low your playback will be low as well. For a typical playback app, you'd tend to leave this property at 1.0 and adjust the system's volume instead.

I agree with you @iKenndac but When I set volume to playbackmanager it is not increasing the system volume – Tendulkar Mar 28 '14 at 05:44
It's not supposed to. You need to set the system volume yourself. – iKenndac Mar 28 '14 at 09:23
