It actually isn't that simple and there is a lot more to the device's audio volume than you might think. Incorrectly setting the volume could mean that you miss important events, such as a Skype call or notification.
The volume controls adjust the currently applicable volume. For example, if you switch on your phone and it is at the home screen, the volume buttons on the device adjust the loudness of the ringtone when someone calls you. Fire up the music player and the volume controls on the device adjust the music/media volume. It does not affect the loudness of the ringtone, notifications or anything else.
Go into an app, whether it is a game or video chat app like Skype and there is a different volume control. So you could have maximum volume for the ringer, but your video calling app could be set to the minimum and unless you are actually looking at the phone or tablet when someone calls, you will miss the call.
It doesn't matter whether you have an iPad, iPhone, or Android phone or tablet. They are all the same. The only difference is where to find the controls. On a Samsung device for example, press the volume button and the volume control appears on the screen. Press the gear icon at the right side and four volume controls appear. Just drag the sliders to set the volumes.
On an iPhone or iPad you can adjust the volume in each app, such as within Music or the ringer on the home screen. Other volumes, such as the notification volume are in Settings, Sounds and Settings, Notifications.
