<\/p>\n

If you’ve downloaded iOS 16.4<\/span> to your iPhone, one new feature can help make your phone calls sound more clear. The update expands Voice Isolation to phone calls now, expanding the feature from\u00a0FaceTime calls<\/span>. Apple introduced Voice Isolation and Wide Spectrum to FaceTime calls with the release of iOS 15<\/span> in 2021. However, only Voice Isolation is available for phone calls at this time.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/figure>\n

When enabled, Voice Isolation muffles distracting background noises that interrupt your phone call. That way, if you’re on a business call or catching up with friends, you won’t be interrupted by your dog’s barking or construction outside your home.\u00a0<\/p>\n

To enable Voice Isolation, you have to be on a phone call, and you won’t find the feature in Settings. But once you turn Voice Isolation on, it will stay on for all subsequent phone calls until it’s turned off.<\/p>\n

Here’s how to activate and disable Voice Isolation for phone calls.<\/p>\n

How to enable Voice Isolation<\/h2>\n

1.<\/strong> Start or answer a phone call.<\/p>\n

2.<\/strong> Swipe down from the top-right corner of your screen to access your Control Center<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Mic Mode can be found in the Control Center during a phone call.<\/p>\n

3.<\/strong> Tap Mic Mode<\/strong> near the top-right corner of your screen.\u00a0<\/p>\n

4.<\/strong> Tap Voice Isolation<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Pro tip: Instead of turning this feature on during a call with someone else, you can call yourself and enable Voice Isolation by following the steps above.<\/p>\n

To disable Voice Isolation, follow the same steps above and tap Standard<\/strong> in Mic Mode. This will return your microphone back to its default setting.<\/p>\n

What’s Wide Spectrum?<\/h2>\n

Alongside Voice Isolation in Mic Mode is Wide Spectrum. Unlike Voice Isolation — which muffles background sounds — Wide Spectrum amplifies background sounds without affecting your voice.<\/p>\n

Wide Spectrum is useful for calls with multiple people on one phone line. That way, everyone can be heard, not just the person holding the phone.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Currently, Wide Spectrum is only available for FaceTime calls<\/span>, not phone calls. But, since the feature is still present in Mic Mode when accessed during a phone call, this feature might become available for phone calls in the future.\u00a0<\/p>\n
