Mic Test

About Mic Test

A mic test checks that your microphone is working before a call, meeting, or recording. Click start and allow microphone access, then speak — the level meter and waveform respond to your voice in real time, and a badge confirms once sound is detected. It's the quick way to test your microphone in the browser before Zoom, Discord, Teams, or a recording. Your audio is analyzed locally; nothing is recorded, saved, or uploaded.

Frequently asked questions

How do I test my microphone before a call?

Click start, allow microphone access, and speak normally. If the level meter and waveform move, your mic is picking up sound and is ready for Zoom, Discord, Teams, or any recording. If they stay flat, the mic isn't being heard.

The meter isn't moving — what's wrong?

Check the right microphone is selected in your system settings, that it isn't muted, and that no other app is using it. If permission was blocked, re-enable it in your browser's site settings, then reload and try again.

Is my audio recorded or uploaded?

No. Everything runs in your browser using the Web Audio API. The tool only measures the live signal to move the meter and waveform — nothing is recorded, stored, or transmitted, and there's no playback.

Does it work on a phone?

Yes. It works in modern mobile browsers too — grant microphone permission when prompted and speak to see the meter and waveform respond.
