    Sometimes the mic is not working (haven't noticed before WatchOS 4)

    The last couple of weeks my mic hasn't always worked. The watch (series 1, not original watch) doesn't react to Hey Siri, dictating in messages, and Siri activated by long pressing on the Digital Crown.

    Airpods: Phone calls in noisy(ish) environments

    Hi all, I've been a recent lurker here -- I recently made the switch to iOS from Android so admittedly I'm a bit of a neophyte in the ways of the Apple. That said, I'm definitely liking things so far! I'm having a bunch of trouble finding information on the mic quality/filtering/sensitivity...

    Carrier Siri and Audio Messages won't work for me

    The microphone on my iPhone is not picking up any sound from Siri and the iMessage audio messages. I tested the mic on other apps(Snapchat, Video, and Voicecall), and it works fine there. On the audio messages, I try to talk, but all it plays back is just a loud noise without a hint of my...
