Why do apps need access to the microphone on the iPhone?

why do apps need access to the microphone on the iPhone?

Kind of depends on the App.
If its a dictation App it needs to hear your voice. If its a souind recorder it needs it to record audio.
What App is asking for it?
What does the App do?

  • App needs access to microphone

    App needs access to my microphone and I declined instead of accepted. How do I go back to get asked again? I tried to remove and reinstall app but didn't work. Reboot didn't help either. Worked fine and didn't ask for access until the iOS7 update.

    Setting>privacy>microphone should do the trick.

    why do i need to enter the credit card information for downloading free apps and redeem the codes?

    As a security precaution, Apple verifies your billing credentials with every transaction whether paid or free apps or using the balance of a redeemed code.

    First, you posted in the Mac App Store forum which are apps for the Mac OS X, not iOS devices.
    You do not need to re purchase your apps. Connect your iOS devices to your computer, launch iTunes. From the menu bar click Apps then click Sync
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • I need access to the raw completed form as submitted out by our employees on a work task.

    I need access to the raw completed form as submitted out by our employees on a work task.

    What you have access to in FormsCentral is the row in the Response Table on the View Responses tab of the form in FormsCentral.  From there you can (assuming the form is owned by a Paid level account) "Download Response as PDF Form" from the row menu, or from the File menu with the row selected.  The PDF looks like the original form filled out.
    Thanks,

  • ITunes can not sync apps to the iPhone because it can not be determined which apps are installed on the iPhone.

    Hello.
    I get this error message
    iTunes can not sync apps to the iPhone because it can not be determined which apps are installed on the iPhone.
    iTunes kann keine Apps mit dem iPhone synchronisieren weil nicht festgestellt werden kann welche Apps auf dem iPhone installiert sind.
    Need Help

    Basic troubleshooting is reset, restart, restore.  Have the first two been tried?
    How about simply unplugging the iPhone and plugging it back in to sync?
    What has been done in an attempt to troubleshoot the issue?

  • Do you need to sync the iPhone through iTunes if you sync over the air?

    Do you need to sync the iPhone through iTunes if you sync over the air?
    My MacBook Pro and iPhone 3G with OS 4 synchronize with each other over the air through my Snow Leopard Server. Though when I connect it to iTunes I see that it allows me to checked "Synchronize with this computer" type options and I'm confused as to why that would be if they're synchronizing over the air.
    Can someone help clarify when those should be checked? Because I do want everything that's on my computer synchronized with my iPhone and vice versa, but if I add the accounts on my phone manually that seems to work too.

    In regards to syncing contacts and calendar events, if you are syncing this data over the air on your iPhone and the contacts and calendar events synced over the air on your iPhone match the Address Book and iCal data on your Mac, there is no reason to sync this data direct with the Address Book and iCal on your Mac via the iTunes sync process.

  • Why don't appointments entered on the iphone sync to my macbook??

    why don't appointments entered on the iphone sync to my macbook??

    With the iPad connected to your computer's iTunes, when you select the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes and the Apps tab that then appears on the right-hand side, are the apps that you want on the iPad ticked/selected in the selection list and have you then clicked on Sync at the bottom right of that window ? Do you get any error messages when you try to sync them to the iPad e.g. have you got the relevant iOS version on your iPad for them (Settings > General > About > Version on the iPad or the Summary tab on your computer's iTunes) ?

    Hi there.
    Have an iphone 3G and wen to install the Facebook app from the app store. Wen I selected install app, it said that the iphone requires IOS 4.3.
    I then plugged the phone into itunes and it said the phone was up to date (IOS 4.2.2 I think it said?). How can i install these apps, the same happened and other apps i tried to install. Any advice would be much apprecaited

    Unfortunately there is nothing that you can do and you CAN'T install these apps becuse your phone is too old.  A 3G cannot be updated beyond iOS 4.2, which is the most it can support and these apps need iOS 4.3 or above to be installed and there are no versions of these apps available.
    Developers have to place a cut off somewhere and keep developing for the most recent software that does not now include the 3G.
    If you want to install these apps on your phone, then you will have to upgrade to either an iPhone 3Gs, iPhone 4, 4s or 5.  That is all you can do because you won't be able to download these apps on an iPhone 3G - just not possible any longer.

    It sounds as if AT&T has already told you they can't do what you want. It doensn't sould like anything that's fixable on your end.

  • Do I need to activate the Iphone 4 if I buy it without contract?

    Hey Guys, Do I really need to activate the Iphone 4 when I buy it without contract at the apple retail store? Thanks.

    If you are in the US, you cannot purchase an iphone directly from Apple without an AT&T contract. If you want to purchase a no commitment/no contract iphone, you will have to purchase such directly from AT&T. However, the phone will have to be activated on AT&T's network before you can do anything with it. AT&T will require that you establish a post paid account at a minimum.

    If you don't see the charging screen within an hour, or you see the connect to power screen, check your connector, USB cable, and power adapter. Make sure that everything is plugged in firmly, free of debris, and not damaged. You might want to try a different USB cable or power adapter.

    If you can’t charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

  • Why do that when we setup the iPhone, appears as the Standard Portuguese Portuguese of Brazil and Portuguese official (European) in brackets?

    Why do that when we setup the iPhone, appears as the Standard PortuguesePortuguese of Brazil and Portuguese official (European) in brackets?
    It's the only thing I hate about Apple. Please change for the Portuguese was invented by the Portuguese, and not by the Brazilians. As the English of England is the official, the Portuguese of Portugal is also the official.

    "Official" according to whom? I don't believe there is a global body that decides which version of a given language is the "real" or definitive version. However, if you wish Apple to know your feelings on the matter, use the appropriate link on the Feedback page:

    Apple doesn't participate here.
