Online Microphone Test

Q: Is my audio recorded or sent anywhere?

No. All audio processing happens entirely in your browser using the Web Audio API. No audio data is sent to any server. Your microphone test is 100% private.

Q: Why can't I hear myself during the microphone test?

The volume meter shows your mic is working visually. To hear yourself, use the Record & Playback feature — record up to 10 seconds and then play it back.

Q: How do I fix one-way audio in VoIP calls?

One-way audio is usually caused by microphone permissions being blocked, the wrong input device selected, or firewall/NAT issues blocking WebRTC. Use this tool to verify your mic works, then check your browser permissions and firewall settings.

Q: Which browsers support the microphone test?

This microphone test works in all modern browsers: Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Safari, Opera, and Brave. Mobile browsers on Android and iOS are also supported.

Q: Why is my microphone too quiet?

Check your system microphone input volume in your operating system settings. On Windows, go to Settings > System > Sound > Input. On Mac, go to System Settings > Sound > Input. Also ensure no other application is using the microphone simultaneously.

Test your microphone instantly in your browser. Check volume levels, record and play back audio, and troubleshoot issues before making VoIP calls.
