Mic not working for certain things.

My mic works perfectly fine when recording a video straight from camera. But it won’t work for recording on Instagram. It works fine for recording audios in iMessage but not for sending audios through WhatsApp. I tried deleting the apps and re-installing them but that didn’t work. The mic doesn’t work for phone calls or FaceTime either. How can I fix that issue? And why does it only work for certain things.

iPhone 12, iOS 14
