iPhone rear camera video has no sound: check the rear microphone

An iPhone has more than one microphone; when you record video with the rear camera, the microphone next to the camera is usually used. If rear camera videos have no sound but front camera videos do, the rear microphone is most likely the problem. First check whether the case covers the hole.

Key points
  • Rear camera recording uses the microphone next to the camera.
  • Record with the front camera and compare.
  • A case or lens protector can cover the microphone hole.
  • Check microphone permission in third-party apps.
  • If there is no sound at all, the rear mic should be checked.

01Which microphone is used?

iPhones have microphones at the bottom, at the top (next to the earpiece) and on the back (next to the camera). Rear camera video uses the back microphone, while calls and voice memos mainly use the bottom one. So with one microphone faulty, other functions can seem normal.

02A simple comparison test

TestResultMeaning
Record video with the front cameraSoundThe rear mic is suspect
Voice Memos appSoundThe bottom mic is fine
Rear camera without the caseSound returnsThe case was covering the hole
No sound anywhere—Audio circuit or software

03What you can try at home

  1. Remove the case. A case or lens protector around the camera can cover the microphone hole.
  2. Clean the hole. Gently wipe the small hole next to the camera with a soft, dry brush.
  3. Check permissions. If you record with another app, turn on its microphone permission in Settings.
  4. Restart and update.

04When is a repair needed?

If rear camera videos still have no sound without the case and after cleaning, the rear microphone or its connection may be faulty. Problems with the Voice Memos app are in iPhone voice memos not recording, and audio faults on the board on our IC chip repair page.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

Why is there no sound when I record with the rear camera?

Rear camera recording uses the microphone next to the camera; a case may be covering the hole or the microphone is faulty.

02

The front camera has sound but the rear does not. What does that mean?

Most likely the rear microphone or its hole is the problem. Try again without the case and after cleaning.

03

There is no sound when recording in a social media app. Why?

The app’s microphone permission may be off; turn it on in Settings.

04

Will the repair delete my data?

Data is usually preserved during a repair; still, you need to back up your data before the repair starts (backups are the customer’s responsibility).

Phone works but the screen is black: what to do

If your phone rings or vibrates but the screen is black, the phone is on; the problem is the screen or its connection. Force restart and charge it first. Shine a torch close to the screen in the dark: a faint picture means a backlight fault. If it started after a drop or liquid, the screen is usually replaced.
