Hello Josephhart,


We're glad you thought to ask Apple Support Communities about the issue you're having with the microphone on your iPhone. Great information with letting us know it's working as expected with Siri, but not so much with recording a voice memo and phone calls. Do you use a case or screen protector with your iPhone? If so, remove those to see if that helps. Also, be sure the front microphone is free from debris and dirt. The following guides have some great information to help:


If the microphones on your iPhone aren't working

Cleaning your iPhone


If the issue continues after those steps, you'll want to have your iPhone in for possible service. Check into available options here: iPhone Repair and Service


Thanks, and take care.
