Zoom app audio and microphone issues

If you are experiencing issues with audio in the Zoom mobile app, try these steps:

  • Check that the volume on your device is turned up. It may be helpful to use headphones with a microphone.
  • Make sure your microphone is not on mute. If you see the “muted audio” icon in the meeting controls (a microphone with a line through it), tap it to unmute.
  • If you are still muted, your provider may have muted you accidentally. Ask to be unmuted by sending a chat message.
  • Make sure you have connected your mobile device's audio. If you see the “no audio” icon in the meeting controls (a speaker with an x beside it), tap it and select Call via Device Audio. If prompted, allow Zoom to access your microphone.
  • Give Zoom access to your device’s microphone.
    • Apple Devices: Go to Settings > Privacy > Microphone and allow access to Zoom.
    • Android: Go to Settings > Apps & notifications > App permissions > Microphone and allow access for Zoom.
  • Close any other applications that may be using the microphone.

If problems persist, try restarting your device, or reinstalling Zoom from the Apple App Store or Google Play.
