UPDATE:
Well you may recall I mentioned no CarPlay voice issues for me on my new 14 ProMax and linked it potentially failure of voice on my ipad microphone of facetime, other iphone, messenger calls/videos. I was wondering if 15.7 broke something on iPad since it was a precursor for iPads to be usable with other updates since 16 was not out for them. Well I am embarrassed to report I was wrong. I looked at tons of videos and sites on ipad microphone problems. But first off they always had me try to record to video which worked fine and my voice was fine with the photo app videos.
But one thing I ignored in the help sites was “clean your microphones“ because they ”worked” with my photo app videos. So I was looking at the microphone holes (little pinpricks) on my 12.9 gen 3 iPad Pro. Two on side with power button, and one on bottom of ipad as it is mounted on my magic keypad. They had this faint white/yellow color but thought that was normal. Well it was not and my toothpick cleaned it out and not the pinprick holes for microphone are dark like the larger ones for the speakers for example. Hmm there was something in these after all.
Did a FaceTime call on the ipad through my iphone to my wife in other room with door shut and she could hear me perfectly. So I am at a loss to explain why microphones worked in this condition with video on phots app. But not in FaceTime calls or messenger calls or phone calls answered on my ipad but those apps and their use on the microphone must be different, more sensitive than the photo app which seemed to tolerate the dust/lint in the little holes. A new experience for me but then my ipad is a gen 3 so a bit old
