Why is my phone’s microphone picking up background noise?

1. Check the Phone and Microphone Settings
    Visit the phone’s settings to ensure the microphone is not muted and that the recording levels are at an optimal level.


2. Move the Phone Away from Potential Sources of Noise
    To eliminate potential background noise, try to move the phone away from any potential sound sources, such as speakers or busy rooms.


3. Clean the Microphone
    Clean the microphone by carefully wiping away any dirt, dust, or debris. Do this while the microphone is turned off to avoid potential damage.


4. Switch to Airplane Mode
    Put the phone into Airplane Mode to disable wireless connections, which could interfere with the microphone.
