Pick a mode
Tell Sona whether you're dealing with water, dust, or you're not sure — Auto covers most cases.
Face it downward
Hold your phone with the speaker grille facing down, over a soft, dry surface.
Start the cycle
Sona plays a fading sound sweep through your speaker for about 45 seconds.
Test the result
Run the speaker test to check whether the sound is clearer, then repeat if needed.
Get water out of your phone speaker
Sona's Water mode plays a low sweep designed to encourage trapped moisture to work its way out of the grille through vibration, not heat or suction.
- Hold the speaker facing downward while it runs
- Let the device air-dry for a few minutes after
- Not a substitute for professional liquid-damage repair
Remove dust and lint from the grille
Pocket lint and dust build up in speaker grilles over time and muffle sound. Dust mode uses a different sweep pattern tuned for dry, light debris rather than moisture.
For stubborn debris, a soft-bristle brush held at an angle can help — never use anything sharp or metal inside the grille.

Common questions
How does a phone speaker cleaner work?+
Sona plays a low, controlled sound cycle through your speaker. The vibration this creates can help loosen trapped water, dust, or lint sitting in the grille.
Can this remove water from my speaker?+
It can help move trapped water out of the grille for many common cases, but it isn't guaranteed to work for every device or every amount of water.
Can it remove dust and lint?+
Yes — Dust mode uses a sweep tuned to help dislodge light debris like lint and dust sitting near the grille.
Does it work on iPhone and Android?+
Sona runs in your mobile browser and works on modern iPhone and Android devices — no app install required.
Do I need to install an app?+
No. Sona runs entirely in your browser using the Web Audio API.
Is Sona free?+
Yes — the core cleaning tool and speaker test are free, with no account required.
How long should I run it?+
A single cycle runs about 45 seconds. If your speaker still sounds muffled afterward, it's fine to run another cycle.
What if my speaker is still muffled after cleaning?+
Try the Dust mode for a different sweep pattern, check for visible debris, and run the speaker test to compare before and after. If it stays muffled, the cause may be hardware-related.
Can this repair a damaged speaker?+
No. Sona is built for common moisture and debris issues, not hardware repair. Physically damaged speakers need professional service.
Can I use it after dropping my phone in water?+
You can try a cleaning cycle once the exterior is dry, but for significant liquid exposure, follow your manufacturer's liquid-damage guidance first — sound alone isn't a substitute for that.
