Taking up for example the answer of Microphone not working on third party apps only (iPhone 6):
Under
Settings
>Privacy
>Microphone
you’ll be able to allow/deny each app that require the microphone to use it.
I do not see any apps in the list. I only see one item called “App Clips”, and in that item, nothing is listed. How can I get back all of the apps that need the microphone?
The microphone is missing everywhere:
- filming with front or back camera,
- voice memos: you cannot even start the record,
- speech-to-text in Whatsapp, Telegram, Signal, Threema and just everywhere else,
- Siri,
- phone calls with or without headset.
This is just a list of examples that I tried, it is clear that it does not work anywhere else.
I have an iPhone 7 with iOS 15.6.
