Video records but mic audio is missing

Video records but mic audio is missing

Overview

Go to your camera app settings and select 'External Microphone' as the audio source.

Details / steps

If the option is not available, your default camera app may not support external mics — use the 'Open Camera' app instead.



Checklist
  1. Use the VOOK app for mic controls such as volume, mute, and noise reduction.
  2. Use Enhancer for audio cleanup when internet is available.
  3. Some features depend on your VOOK mic model and receiver type.

Note:
Feature availability can vary by VOOK mic model, receiver type, phone model, camera model, and app permissions.

If the issue continues, contact VOOK support with your phone model, VOOK mic model, app version, screenshots, and a short sample recording or video if available.
