I have a 3T that I want to dedicate to an app that needs the microphone. The microphone is not working in any app. I even tried Gmail, making sure to give permission and Gmail hears nothing. I have looked at a lot of settings and all seems to be correct but maybe I am missing something? Can anyone suggest how to turn on my microphone? Thanks.

well your phone came out in 2016. its pretty old. you might want to consider doing a factory reset. it could also be a hardware issue. can you be heard on phone calls?

I only have this phone on wifi and only want to use it for the Merlin Bird app. Maybe it is the hardware though. I just want to be sure I am exhausting all possibilities before I buy an more recent used phone for this purpose. The size of this device is perfect to attach to my backpack. If I can determine it is hardware and decide to replace it rather than try to have fixed, I will ask here for reccomendations for a similar sized device, but newer.
edit: I did do a factory reset a few weeks ago when I resurrected the phone specifically for this one purpose.

well if a factory reset does not work, than i think it is hardware.
