Improving your phone’s call quality can enhance your
communication experience. Here are some steps to achieve better call quality:
1. Check Network Connection
- Weak
Signal: Ensure you are in a good network coverage area. Move closer to
a cell tower or switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data if available. - Android:
Settings > Network & Internet > Mobile Network. - iPhone:
Settings > Cellular or Settings > Wi-Fi.
2. Clean the Phone’s Earpiece and Microphone
- Dust
or debris can block sound input and output. Regularly clean your device: - Use
a soft, dry cloth or a gentle cleaning tool to remove any build-up.
3. Use a Quality Headset or Speaker
- Sometimes
built-in phone speakers or microphones can cause poor call quality. Using
high-quality headphones or a Bluetooth headset can improve sound clarity.
4. Update Your Software
- Outdated
software can cause bugs that affect call quality: - Android:
Settings > System > System Updates. - iPhone:
Settings > General > Software Update.
5. Adjust Microphone Settings
- Check
if the microphone is properly configured: - Android:
Settings > Apps > Select App > Permissions > Allow microphone
access. - iPhone:
Settings > Privacy > Microphone and ensure necessary apps have
access.
6. Manage Background Apps
- Background
apps may consume processing power, affecting call quality: - Android:
Settings > Apps > Battery > Restrict background activity. - iPhone:
Settings > General > Background App Refresh and disable unnecessary
apps.
7. Reduce Noise and Echo
- Turn
off loudspeaker during calls or use noise-canceling features if available: - Android/iPhone:
Use built-in noise suppression or voice isolation features during calls.
8. Restart Your Phone
- A
simple restart can resolve temporary glitches affecting call quality.
9. Check Carrier Settings
- Some
network settings may require updates: - Android:
Settings > System > Network settings reset. - iPhone:
Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
10. Enable VoLTE or HD Calling
- Voice
over LTE (VoLTE) or High Definition (HD) Calling provides better voice
quality. - Android:
Check your carrier settings for VoLTE support. - iPhone:
Ensure Wi-Fi Calling and Cellular Data are enabled under Settings
> Cellular.
11. Contact Your Carrier
- If
issues persist, consult your mobile carrier for network-related problems
or hardware issues with the phone.
12. Factory Reset (As a Last Resort)
- If
all else fails, a factory reset may resolve deep software issues: - Android:
Settings > System > Reset options > Erase all data. - iPhone:
Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings.
