The microphone check does not hear me

Before Speaking starts, Skorway runs a short microphone check. If it does not hear you, try these steps in order:

  1. Make sure the browser is allowed to use the microphone. Click the icon at the left of the address bar and set Microphone to Allow.
  2. Check that the right microphone is chosen in your computer's sound settings, especially if you use a headset. Some headsets also have a mute switch.
  3. Close other apps that might be using the microphone, such as video calls.
  4. Sit close to the microphone and speak at your normal volume.
  5. On a Mac, open System Settings > Privacy & Security > Microphone and turn it on for your browser.
  6. Try another supported browser: a recent version of Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox.
