Mic and webcam tests

Check your microphone and camera before a call or a stream, and measure how loud it is around you.

Which test do you need?

  • People cannot hear you, or you sound bad: the mic test shows your level, warns about clipping and lets you hear a recording.
  • Your camera is black, blurry or choppy: the webcam test shows the resolution and frame rate you really get.
  • You have a video call coming up: the webcam and mic test checks both at once.
  • You want to know how loud a room is: use the decibel meter.
