Recommended Solutions

8 soluções
💡

Clean the Microphone Port

95%Official
Gently clean the microphone opening with a soft brush or compressed air to remove any dust or debris.

🤖 AI Analysis

"The user is experiencing muffled audio, which is a common symptom of a blocked microphone. Cleaning the microphone port is a direct and simple solution that could resolve this issue. The problem started recently, making a physical obstruction a likely cause."

💡

Remove Phone Case/Screen Protector

90%Official
Temporarily remove any accessories that might be covering the microphone to see if the issue resolves.

🤖 AI Analysis

"Similar to cleaning the microphone, a phone case or screen protector can obstruct the microphone. Since the problem started recently, it's possible an accessory was recently added or shifted, causing the issue. This is a quick and easy test."

💡

Restart the Device

85%Official
A simple restart can often resolve temporary software glitches affecting audio.

🤖 AI Analysis

"A software glitch is a common cause for audio problems, and a simple restart can often resolve these temporary issues. Given the problem started a few days ago, a software hiccup is plausible and this is a fundamental troubleshooting step."

💡

Test with Another App/Device

75%Official
Try using a different voice recording app or making a call from another device to isolate if the issue is device-specific.

🤖 AI Analysis

"Testing with another app or device helps to isolate whether the problem is with the specific calling app (though the user specified the native app), the device's microphone hardware, or the overall device. This is a good step for diagnosis."

💡

Update Calling App and OS

60%Official
Ensure both your calling application and your device's operating system are updated to the latest versions.

🤖 AI Analysis

"Although the user stated they haven't recently updated the OS, it's still possible that an update is pending or that the calling app itself has an update available that could fix audio bugs. This is a standard troubleshooting step for app-related issues."

💡

Test on a Different Network

40%Official
Try making calls on a different Wi-Fi network or a strong cellular signal to rule out network issues.

🤖 AI Analysis

"While network issues can cause call quality problems, the user specifically described muffled audio, not dropped calls or static. However, a very poor network connection could potentially affect microphone input processing, so it's worth considering, but less likely than hardware or software issues."

💡

Reduce Background Network Usage

30%Official
Close other applications that might be consuming significant bandwidth during calls.

🤖 AI Analysis

"Reducing background network usage is more likely to affect call clarity due to data transmission issues rather than the user's voice being muffled. The problem description points more towards the microphone input itself."

💡

Seek Professional Repair

20%Official
If other solutions fail, the microphone may need to be repaired or the device replaced.

🤖 AI Analysis

"This is a last resort solution. Given the problem started recently and the user is using a smartphone, it's more probable that a simpler fix like cleaning the microphone or a software restart will resolve the issue before professional repair is needed."
