Mic Test — Check Your Microphone

Check that your microphone picks up sound before a call, meeting or game — built-in, headset or USB. Speak and the level bar follows your voice; record a few seconds to hear exactly how you sound. The recording isn't saved and disappears when you leave the test.

Microphone

Make a sound and watch the bar move with it. You can also record a few seconds and listen back.

Pick a check and run it right here.

For things like the screen, touch, sound and camera, look for yourself and press "Works" to record a pass.

Frequently asked questions

The bar doesn't move at all.

It says the microphone can't be opened.

Microphone access for this site may be blocked, or a call or video meeting app may be using the mic. Follow the message on screen to allow access or close that app, then try again.

Is my recording saved or sent anywhere?
