In today’s digital age, smartphones have become an essential part of our lives. From communication to entertainment, we rely on our phones for almost everything. But did you know that you can also use your smartphone as a microphone for your Windows PC? Yes, you read that right!

Whether you want to record a podcast, make a video call, or use your PC for gaming, a high-quality microphone is essential. In this article, we’ll show you how to use your smartphone as a microphone for your Windows PC.

Step 1: Download a Microphone App

The first step in using your smartphone as a microphone is to download a microphone app. There are several options available, but some of the most popular ones are WO Mic (Wireless microphone), Microphone by Wonder Grace, and Megaphone Free.

Step 2: Connect Your Smartphone to Your PC

Once you’ve downloaded the app, connect your smartphone to your PC using a USB cable or Wi-Fi. If you’re using a USB cable, make sure to select the “charge only” option on your phone. If you’re using Wi-Fi, make sure that both your phone and PC are connected to the same network.

Step 3: Set Up the Microphone App

Next, open the microphone app on your smartphone and follow the instructions to set it up. Usually, the app will ask you to select the type of connection you’re using (USB or Wi-Fi), and then it will prompt you to install a driver on your PC.

Step 4: Test Your Microphone

After you’ve set up the microphone app, it’s time to test it. Open the sound settings on your Windows PC and select the microphone that you just installed. Then, speak into your smartphone and check if the volume bars on your PC move. If they do, congratulations! You’ve successfully set up your smartphone as a Windows microphone.

Step 5: Adjust the Settings

Once you’ve tested your microphone, you may want to adjust the settings to get the best possible sound quality. In the sound settings, you can change the microphone sensitivity, volume levels, and other parameters to optimize the sound quality.
