Hello,

Is. it possible to record line level on iPhone?

Garage band and vocal recorder app are recording mic input only.

Is there any app able to record from the lightning input port?

Line level input to iPhone 14 Pro I'm looking to find the correct cable/combination to get a line level input (from either the headphone jack out of an iMac or Audio Interface or line out from a mixing board) to my iPhone 14 Pro to record when taking video instead of the normal iPhone built in Mic. With almost all cords, I get no audio in to record with video. It just records the on board iPhone mic. I tried the 1/8" to Lightning connector, a USB to Lightning connector and various TRS to TRRS plug/connectors. I cannot believe this can be so hard to do for recording audio to video or for live-streaming. I appreciate any help with a working solution. Thanks!

Connecting an external microphone on iPhone XR I have tried connecting an external Apogee microphone (with 3.5 mm audio jack to lightning adaptor). I don’t hear any difference in audio recorded. is there a third party app needed to ensure the iPhone records from the external microphone source and not the internal built in mic?

You likely don't need an app. Try a Lightning to Stereo Mini Adapter.

Set the volume on the phone at about 30-40% for an approximate line level output.
