  1. To clean the iPhone speaker, you can use the first tool which is a toothbrush with soft bristles to clean the iPhone speaker, removing dirt and dust from the top speaker and speakers near the plug of the charger. But be careful to brush gently and at an angle so that the silk fibers don't push dust deep inside.


    You can clean the headphone speakers by using a toothbrush. Follow these steps:


    • Rub gently from side to side.
    • Slowly scrape gently in a circular motion to vacuum out the dust.
    • Repeat this process several times until you feel the speaker is clean.


    Using a toothbrush to clean the iPhone speaker may cause damage to the bottom grille if too much pressure is applied, but it is still a viable cleaning option.

  2. The second way you can use a cotton swab to sweep away stubborn debris or lint accumulated in your iPhone speaker. It will not damage the iPhone speaker because it is softer than a toothbrush.


    How to do it is extremely simple:


    • Take one end of the cotton swab place it on the speaker holes and press gently to make sure it absorbs all the debris clogged inside.
    • Slowly roll the cotton back and forth on the mesh.
    • Repeat this process several times to make your iPhone speaker cleaner.

  3. If you are a more meticulous person who wants to remove stains even deeper, use a toothpick with a compact tip that easily goes deep to remove lint from your iPhone speaker. But this tool is also quite dangerous if not used carefully, leading to damage to the internal parts. The toothpick will penetrate the mesh gently and it will clean both parts of the iPhone's speakers better.


    To do this:


    • Gently guide the toothpick into each speaker hole.
    • Then slowly slide the toothpick through each gap, scratch gently, and then pull it out.
    • Use a flashlight from available devices if necessary to see where you move the toothpick.


    In addition, this method can also clean the iPhone's charging port. Although a toothpick is not as widely used as a SIM ejector tool, tweezers, or paper clip, it is still necessary in some cases.

  4. To use duct tape - a tool that can also get rid of dust particles stuck deep inside the grille. Masking tape or painter's tape is specially designed to avoid leaving adhesive residue on any surface. You can use this method alone or in combination with other methods. You can use this method in addition to the previous ones to remove any tiny dust particles.


    Use painter's tape to clean the iPhone speaker, do the following:


    • Cut a small piece of tape and roll it into a cylinder, with the sticky side facing out.
    • Let the tape touch the iPhone speaker after wrapping it around your index finger.
    • Use tape to collect all the dirt and debris that has accumulated in the speaker grille.
    • Check the surface of the tape after each application. You should throw away the used tape if it is too dirty and replace it with a clean one. Roll a small piece of tape and poke it back into the speaker to continue cleaning.
    • Repeat the process until you notice no more dirt and lint stuck to it.


    However, you still need to be gentle with it, because if any glue gets stuck, it can make your iPhone even dirtier.

  5. Finally, consider using a soft-tipped air blower to clean your iPhone speaker because it creates less pressure than compressed air in the box. After applying the dirt removal methods above, you can use an additional air blower to help clean the area.


    To clean your speakers, simply hold the air blower close to the speaker to blow away all debris, blowing short blasts of air. Always keep a close and safe distance from the speakers while using the air blower.
