Abstract
One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for controlling a volume level of a device are provided. For example, a first button corresponding to increasing a volume level of a device may be selected, and the volume level may be increased by a first amount (e.g., 10%). A second button corresponding to decreasing the volume level of the device may be selected. If the second button is determined to have been selected within a threshold period of time after the selection of the first button, the volume level may be decreased by a second amount (e.g., 5%). If the second button is determined to have not been selected within the threshold period of time after the selection of the first button, the volume level may be decreased by the first amount (e.g., 10%).
