How To Use It
  1. Choose the microphone you want to test.
  2. Click Start test and allow access when the browser asks.
  3. Speak normally, then capture and replay a short sample.
Troubleshooting
  • If the meter moves but apps still cannot hear you, the issue is often the app-specific input setting.
  • If nothing moves, check mute toggles, system input gain, and other apps that might be using the microphone.
