Apple Watch Ultra 3 Microphone not working

Apple Watch Ultra 3 Microphone not working.


I've upaired/repaired and cleaned it. No luck.


When I test on Voice Memo there's no sound.


Should I just do a reset? Thanks!

Since Voice Memos records no sound and you've already unpaired, repaired, and cleaned it,


  1. Restart the Watch and update watchOS.
  2. Check the microphone opening for obstruction or trapped moisture.
  3. Test Voice Memos again.
