Test the Microphone

If your voice sounds muffled or callers can't hear you, testing your microphone can help troubleshoot the issue. Here's a quick guide for your Apple® device.

Before you begin

Test your microphone on your Apple device if you are experiencing audio problems with phone calls, FaceTime®, Siri®, etc.
If your voice sounds faint while using the Speakerphone, ensure your device's receiver isn't covered by a case or cover.
If audio from video recordings sounds faint or if Siri can't hear you, make sure the receiver and front microphone on top of your device aren't covered or dirty.
