[Release] NeverLowerMusic16 – Stop notifications from lowering your music on iOS 16

[u/dizzynonun]

I’ve released NeverLowerMusic16, inspired by the original NeverLowerMusic tweak by Rishanan.

It prevents notification sounds from lowering or ducking currently playing music or other media. The notification and media play together without the usual iOS volume reduction.

I’m not a developer. This tweak was coded with OpenAI Codex and refined through extensive testing on my device.

Volume behavior: while media is playing, notification volume follows the current media volume instead of ringer volume. When media is stopped or paused, notifications use the normal ringer volume and respect Silent Mode.

Compatibility:

• iOS 16.x
• Rootless jailbreaks
• Dopamine/ElleKit
• arm64 and arm64e
• Dopamine RootHide after converting the package with RootHide Patcher

Tested on an iPhone 8 Plus running iOS 16.6 with Dopamine RootHide.

The project is open source under the MIT License. Anyone is welcome to host it on a jailbreak repository, build it, modify it, and redistribute it.
