Hi all, i have encounter a problem that when recording audio on whatsapp, the volume is low. Although i have already set the volume to high. And i tried voice call on whatsapp, the volume is okay.
Whatsapp Version 2.20.197.7=17 (Latest Version)

Any ideas?

try without phone case

tried, still same though.
tried restarting phone, the issue still occurs.

What phone are you using? Could be your microphone has an issue

xiaomi, i tried whatsapp call, i can hear the voice from the phone (have problem d phone) . which means the microphone is working ?

there is more than 1 mic on the phone, whatsapp calls and voice notes dont use the same mic

uh, where is the whatsapp calls and voice notes mics' ?

Try clear cache, stop the app and restart phone, see if can fix it. Maybe the latest Whatsapp have compatibility issue with your phone. Try use earphone with mic see if the sound loud enough. If really compatibility issue then can't do anything, wait for another update that will fix it.

tried clear cache an restart phone, ( i cant find the stop the app button anywhere though).

" Maybe the latest Whatsapp have compatibility issue with your phone "
- actually the previous version (.16, now .17) alr have this issue, i thought update the whatsapp to the newest version can solve. but it seem the problems still exist.
I tried to use earphone to record audio for whatsapp, and i cant hear anything from it though... Just swissss.. sound.

Since you already restart phone then no need worry about stop app.
Then means latest Whatsapp still haven't solve this issue. And since use earphone also can't solve it then I guess you stuck with it for now until Whatsapp solve it.

try to revoke all permission
Force stop then start again

Just a wild guess..
try to disable your phone call recorder. If u did enabled it.

hopefully is the version that is the problem.... if it is the hardware mic problem, need to either repair or buy a new one, not sure how much it will cause to repair a mic or even worth it, if it is like the motherboard of a pc, then it would definitely not worth it ?

I dont have the force stop button in my app, only clear cache, but i tried restart. By revoke all permission you meant under permission setting, just close the permission for storage, call, etc?

" hone call recorder "
you mean the one where record the call conversation?
