XR Microphone Only Works For Some Apps

My iPhone XR's microphone only works for some apps/usages, but not all. If I use the voice to text through the keyboard, the mic works. If I call someone, the mic does not work. I don't know if it's a hardware issue, or a software issue. I want to do a reset, but I don't know what type to do.


My microphone works for:

  • Camera app
  • Voice to Text on the Keyboard


My microphone does not work for:

  • Snapchat
  • FaceTime
  • Phone calls
  • Voice Memo


I've attached what the sound is like. WARNING: It's loud.


Thanks in advance!

iPhone XR, iOS 14
