Q: Mic not working for apps except video for camera roll

If I record a video on my camera roll, the sound will turn out fine. But if I use the mic on any other app duch as snapchat, or voice memo, there will be no sound. Just a static noise. I don't know what to do. Please help??

    Hey regine,

     

    It might be because you haven't given microphone access to these apps.

    Try this :  Go to Setting -> Scroll down till you see the app you're having problems with -> click on the app -> Enable Microphone access

     

    Hope this helped

     

    Cheers,

    Seynin

    You can also try to reset your device.

    This won't delete your data stored on this device.


    • Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button
    • Press and hold on the Home button
    • Keep holding both buttons until the display turns off and back on with Apple logo on it.
