iPhones with iOS 16.4 support an interesting feature to improve the sound during calls
You will see that the other party will appreciate the sound quality when talking to you
With the new iPhones 15, the manufacturer once again drew attention to the importance of sound quality when making voice and video calls. Apple already introduced a function that improves the call experience in general years ago with iOS 15. Only now it has improved it even more and the previous restrictions are suddenly there.
Finally, also for phone calls
We already reported more than a year ago about a feature that allows you to improve the quality of your call using voice isolation (screening out ambient noise, a function similar to active noise cancellation, i.e. ANC). It worked almost perfectly, but it had one catch. Smart features were only supported by apps that allow calls over the Internet. Namely, for example WhatsApp, Signal, Instagram, Facebook Messenger or native FaceTime.
Don’t overlook
This feature of the iPhone troubles most owners. How to turn it off?
However, users have complained that Apple doesn’t think about regular calls that use the mobile operator’s network with this handy feature. However, that is now a thing of the past. Apple announced this feature again during the recent launch of the iPhone 15, but I have good news for you – the feature is not limited to the iPhone 15, 15 Plus, 15 Pro and Pro Max.
So how is it? The standard “internet call” noise canceling feature is available on iOS 15 devices, but must be at least iPhone XS and XR or later. Whereas audio enhancement for regular phone calls can be turned on for all iPhone XS and XR or later that are running iOS 16.4 or later. The process for enabling the feature is largely the same:
How to improve call quality on iPhone and iPad?
First you need to start an audio or video call in your favorite application, or a phone call via the operator’s network Next call control center –> open the item microphone
Here you can choose one of the mentioned three options and monitor any difference right during the phone call The microphone setting function is hidden in the control center
Not only for the iPhone 15
Although Apple presented the function with the new iPhones 15, it is not limited to the latest models, as we have already stated. However, according to our measurements, it works significantly better on the editor’s iPhone 15 Pro Max than, for example, last year’s iPhone 14 Pro Max, or the even older iPhone 12.
The other party will especially notice the difference if you have the feature turned on. Whether you’re on the phone at home, at work in the office, or on a busy street, noise blocking works very similarly to turning on active noise cancellation in headphones with this feature. The other party will immediately notice a certain silencing of surrounding noises, which is typical for these functions.
However, what freezes, and it has not been improved in any way since last time, is the absence of a noise barrier function for apps like TikTok or Instagram. And we don’t mean calling between users, which Instagram also supports, but uploading videos for publication as posts or stories. Internet content creators in particular would certainly appreciate this feature. However, it seems that it does not matter directly to Apple, but rather to the developers of individual applications.
