I can't get siri and facetime to work on my phone. Everything is connected but when I try to use either siri or facetime it just won't work. The siri screen shows up but the bottom where the line is usually wavy isn't there.
iPhone 7 Plus
Siri and FaceTime are using the mic that is hidden under the ear speaker grill.
Check if it works by recording a front-facing video saying something.
If you hear yourself good, then there's no a hardware issue and might be just a software bug.
In that case, restore your iPhone.

Just did it and couldn't hear myself at all. But I could make calls and it worked earlier in the day...
Calls are using the other mic, that is placed at the bottom of the phone.
Schedule an appointment at a Genius Bar or the nearest Apple Authorized Service Provider to repair your iPhone.
Thanks for the help.
You are welcome.
Feel free to get back with any questions.
Siri and facetime won't work on my iphone 7 plus.
