Is it possible to play music from the front speaker of an iPhone instead of the rear speaker? I mean, the speaker used for classical phone calls instead of the rear loudspeaker.

I dont think this is possible in the public API's that iOS exposes to its developers. More important is the reason for such a requirement on your part. Why do you need this ?

Also the front speaker is low in volume capacity but perfect for receiving phone calls; maybe not for playing music...

Apple probably would have spent large amount of money & research in figuring out the correct acoustics (and probably other factors) for placing the speaker where it is. Why would you want to tinker with that?
