Once that's done, you should be ready to record. If you're still having problems, let's take a look at the settings within the app.

Before you start or join a call, tap on the Settings icon in the bottom left corner.

If no one can hear you, it may be that you forgot to share your audio. If that's the case, tap on the screen to bring up the bottom menu.

It's also possible that you accidentally muted yourself, or that the call host muted you. If that's the case, tap on the screen and look at the microphone icon in the bottom left corner. If it is red with a line through it, you're muted.

If that doesn't work, go into your device multitasker to make sure no other apps are using your mic (audio apps, podcast apps, maps, etc) and force close them.

If you can't hear anything, tap the screen to see if your speaker(s) are on. You'll see the speaker icon in the top left corner.

If that doesn't work, try using headphones.
If that still doesn't work, try restarting the app and rejoining the call.
