When you are on a phone call with another person, you may have already noticed that the other person cannot hear you very well. There may be excess dirt in the microphone holes.
A mobile phone is up to seven times dirtier than a toilet bowl. This is not very surprising when you consider that we take it out of our pocket or purse hundreds of times a day following getting into the car, touching the subway bar or opening a store door. This is why a major deep cleaning of the smartphone from time to time may be advisable.
If the screen is probably the most germ-infested part of your smartphone, there’s another one that certainly hasn’t been left out. In a pocket or bag, the charging port and microphone holes fill very quickly with micro particles and small dirt that can clog them. One simple key word: delicacy.
First of all, take the time to remove the protective case from your iPhone to make your job easier. Then place the phone on a cloth to avoid accidental impact between the phone and the stand.
Next, you need a tool that fits the tight space of the microphone holes. Several options are then available to you. But prioritize a soft bristle tool, like a clean make-up or watercolor brush. There are also all-in-one iPhone and AirPods cleaning tools available in some stores that fit the charging port or microphone holes. A toothbrush can also be a good option.
Breaking preconceived ideas
Once you find the right tool, take it easy. Do regular, slow and gentle movements to avoid entering particles and damaging some component of the phone.
Usually, when you notice that the microphone is blocked or there is a false contact in the charging port of the phone, you blow into it to dislodge the dirt. Others prefer a hard tool, such as a toothpick or needle. Forget all that, you will not get the desired effect, but rather the opposite. This will do more harm than good to your phone…
