iPhone 7: How to Troubleshoot Problems with the Microphone

The failures with the iPhone 7 microphone come from afar, but even today we are talking about a widely used mobile and that many users continue to use. The Apple company repaired many units for free, others had to pay the cost of repair but still problems arise with the iPhone 7 microphone that we will help you solve.

The microphone is one of the most important aspects of our mobile, because it allows us to communicate through calls, use the Siri assistant and ultimately take full advantage of a smartphone with a processor like the A10 and a configuration of 2 GB of RAM and even 256 GB of storage that is still suitable today.

The most common faults with the microphone

In our usual use of the iPhone 7, several problems can arise that result in the failures of the microfoon, for example that our version of iOS is outdated . This will be the first thing we will have to review, in case there is any new update that resolves it, install it and check again its operation. We can not forget to restart the terminal, in case it is a punctual failure that just by turning it off and on it is solved.

The Bluetooth accessories or the audio jack input can also cause the Iphone 7 microphone to momentarily not work, so we are going to unlink all the devices and unplug them, hoping that this is the error and we do not have to go to older. We must also try to clean the inputs and outputs of the device from time to time, where the microphone is enclosed and possibly because of the dirt that we cannot use. To clean this entrance we will have to use a small stick without reaching the end, since we could damage the microphone.

Check the microphone in several apps

We cannot rule out any options and therefore we must test the microphone in phone calls or in applications such as WhatsApp to send a voice note. If the failure only occurs in one of these apps, we can be calm, because in future updates you should return to normal.

We will have to contact the technical service of the store where we buy the terminal or Apple itself to observe if it was a problem with the welding that joins it to the motherboard or this error comes from other causes. Anyway, if our 2 year warranty has already passed, we will have to take care of the cost of the repair, although it may be worth it if it is not very high and we save ourselves buying a new mobile.
