Iphone 12 microphone problem

My iphone 12 microphone does not record in the voice memo app I know the microphone is ok as it does record if i take an audio visual video on the iphone.I have reset the iphone a couple of times to no effect.

The microphone is enabled in privacy and screen time, but voice memo does not show up in the list of enabled apps.In fact no apps shw up although The microphone does work in video

I have also deleted and reinstalled the voice mail app to no effect.

Any clues??

Windows, Windows 10

Hi there ronwoking,


If you are having issues with the microphone of your iPhone and everything is set up as expected in the microphone settings, follow these steps from If the microphones on your iPhone aren't working next:

Clear the microphones
1. Remove any screen protectors, films, or cases from your iPhone.
2. Clear any debris from the openings of your iPhone. 


If this continues after performing that, then use this information from that article to contact Apple Support to look into your next available options:

Contact Apple Support
If you still sound unclear during calls, recordings, or apps, contact Apple Support to discuss service options.


Take care!
