To turn on the microphone for FaceTime, follow these steps:
1. Open the FaceTime app on your iPhone or iPad. You can find it on your home screen or by searching for it using the search bar.
2. Once you have the app open, start a new FaceTime call or create a FaceTime link. You can do this by tapping on the “+” button at the top right corner of the screen and selecting a contact from your contacts list, or by entering the person’s phone number or email address.
3. Once you are in the FaceTime call (either voice or video), swipe down from the top-right corner of the screen to open the Control Center. This is where you can access various settings and features of your device.
4. In the Control Center, you will see a row of buttons at the top. Look for the button that resembles a microphone, which is used to control the audio settings during the call.
5. Tap on the “Mic Mode” button. This will bring up a menu with three options for the audio mode: Automatic, Speaker, and Handset.
6. Choose the audio mode that suits your needs. The “Automatic” mode is the default setting, which uses the built-in microphone of your device. The “Speaker” mode directs the audio to the speakerphone, making it louder and easier for multiple people to hear. The “Handset” mode directs the audio to the earpiece of your device, making it more private and suitable for individual conversations.
7. Once you have selected the desired audio mode, you can continue your FaceTime call with the microphone turned on according to your preference.
It’s worth noting that these steps may vary slightly depending on the version of iOS or iPadOS you are using, as well as the model of your iPhone or iPad. However, the general process should be similar across most devices.
