Hey OrangeSun,


Sounds like you're trying to determine when the iPhone uses it's microphone.


It would use it anytime you attempt to perform an action which requires the use of a microphone. This would include things like initiating Siri, making phone calls, recording voice memos, recording videos, and many more.


If you ever run into an issue with using the microphone on your iPhone, you can find help here:


If the microphones on your iPhone aren't working


We hope this information helps out!


Take care.
