With this simple trick, you can check if the microphone on your phone is working properly
All Android phones are equipped with a microphone that allows you to speak during a phone call and record WhatsApp audio, but what you may not know is that you can also use it to replace the microphone on your computer with a phone. However, in order to be able to use your mobile phone as a microphone for your PC, you must first check that it is in perfect condition, as it may have been damaged due to a blow or a change in configuration.
For this reason, today we are going to reveal to you a simple trick, compatible with any Android phone, thanks to which you will be able to make sure that the microphone of your smartphone is working properly without having to install a third-party application.
There are a number of apps in the Google Play Store that allow you to check that your smartphone's microphone is working properly, but it is not really necessary to install a new app on your device to perform these tests, as you can use a website for the tool called MicTests.
MicTests is a website that allows you to test the microphone status of your mobile phone, regardless of the brand. This test is done online, so you don't need to install anything on your device.
So, to test your smartphone microphone performance through this site, just follow these simple steps:
- Access the MicTests website from the web browser you are using on your mobile phone.
- Once the website detects your smartphone's microphone, click on the Test my mic button so it can check its status.
- Select the microphone shown in the pop-up window.
- At this point, you need to give the website permission to access your smartphone's microphone.
- To do this, press the Click to allow access to microphone identifiers button, select one of the available options and click the Allow button.
In the browser pop-up window, click While using the app or Just this time.
Next, click the Test my microphone button again and start recording a test of your microphone by talking into it for a few minutes.
Once you have completed this recording test, you will be able to listen to it to check that your Android smartphone microphone is working properly and is not suffering from any hardware malfunction. Similarly, at the bottom of the website, you can see the technical information of the microphone and a questionnaire to evaluate your microphone.
