Hello, we're building a web application which listens to microphone and plays audio responses via Web Audio API on the iOS the Audio is starting to crackle and make noises we've noticed some patterns that are contributing to the noises - Older device or low-power mode - Microphone is allowed (could be unrelated) - Only on iOS testing was done on - iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 14.1, 14.2 this bug makes a very bad listening experience for our users
This sounds much like bug 218762. Could you please try iOS 14.3 developer beta 2? If you still observe issues, please reopen with test cases, as the report is not actionable with a way to reproduce.
Hello Alexey please check the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RPy7pZsfelE listen closely and notice what happens to audio when i activate/deactivate microphone check demo yourself: https://gh.mish.co/dialogflow-web-v2 type: "Help me" the video was taken on iPhone 7 Plus in low-power mode on iOS 14.2
my client is having same issue on iPhone XR on iOS 13.7
here is a video confirmation from my client (iPhone XR, iOS 13.7) https://i.imgur.com/zNWaqiG.mp4 again, listen what happens when he toggles microphone
Could you please try iOS 14.3 developer beta 2?
Alexey i tried iOS 14.3 public beta 2 sadly, no improvements i hear no cracks when microphone is disabled, but as soon as i allow the microphone the quality drops significantly given the application we're building is voice-only, our customers will hear corrupted audio all the time competitor application we evaluated is also suffering from the same issue what should we do now?
Thank you for the test case! I could reproduce with iPhone 7, using - iOS 14 (18A373); - iOS 14.2 (18B92); - iOS 14.2 beta 2 (18C5054c). There is very substantial crackling noise indeed. I was initially confused because I could hear very minor crackling at the end of some sentences on iPhone 12 Pro, but things are much worse on iPhone 7, especially in the mode you suggested (microphone on, low power mode).
