When testing your mobile microphone, the results are displayed as visual waveforms indicating audio levels. A good result typically shows audio levels between 40-70%, representing optimal performance. If your levels are consistently low, it may indicate a problem such as a muted microphone or inadequate gain settings. Warning signs include erratic waveforms or no sound at all, suggesting issues with hardware or permissions. To improve results, check your device's sound settings, ensure you’re speaking close to the microphone, and verify that no other applications are occupying the microphone.
