iPhone 7 and 7 plus mic not working has become a widespread problem, affecting a humongous number of iPhone users in recent times. Actually, people have expressed that they are facing this issue after they have updated to iOS 11. The major problem that users encounter after updating the version is static sound or audio cutoffs during phone calls, no clear sound, and a few others. Here, in this guide, we will show how to deal with mic problems on iPhone 7 and 7 plus.
Step 1
Test ‘Microphones’
Before fixing the issue, test your microphone first to ensure whether it is working. This can be done either by recording audio and play to see or open your ‘Siri’ and ask some questions. If you are able to hear, then you don’t have any issue with your device. Otherwise, do the following:
Step 2
Open ‘Settings’
Go to ‘Settings’ > ‘General’ > ‘Accessibility’ > Scroll down to ‘Phone Noise Cancellation’. Now turn this option off and try restarting your device. Your issue would have been resolved now. However, if you find you still have problems, you can try the next solution.
Step 3
Open ‘Settings’
Go to ‘Settings’> ‘Screen Time’ > 'Privacy Restrictions’ > ‘Microphone’
If you have any relevant app, it may also cause hindrances to your microphone settings, so try closing that app or removing it to fix the audibility issues. If it still does not work, then you may follow the step 4.
Step 4
Open ‘Settings’
Go to ‘Settings’ > ‘General’ > ‘Reset’ > ‘Reset All Settings’
Following these steps will help you fix the issue.
