For the past few weeks now my iPhone 13 Pro Max is having mic recordings issues. When I do any voice recordings the mic sound very low and noisy. But if I do video recordings the sounds is normal and sound good. What is wrong and is there a fix?

Thank you for replying Bruno75. To answer your questions. 1) it happened a few weeks ago. 2)I just noticed and people just started telling me when talking with them on my phone that they can’t hardly hear me. It sounds to them my voice is very low and lots of white noise. So I test the microphone by voice recording on the Voice Memo app. And I realized my voice is very low. But when I try a video recording my voice sounds good and normal. So it’s just issue with Voice Memo app and talking on the phone with someone. 3) I don’t use headphones or ear buds. 4) Yes I have shut the phone off a few times and restart to see if it will fix the issue but no luck. 5) Yes I have the latest IOS update.
