Hi,
Have got a iPhone 8 , people can’t hear me on any phone calls, FaceTime, etc . Have tried using voice memos to record and doesn’t pick up any sound.
When I record a video with the back main camera it does record sound. And sound plays ok .
Is this a speaker issue? And which one would need changing?
Thanks
Is this a good question?

This sounds most likely like a bottom microphone problem. As was already noted, I would try and make certain there’s no debris stuck in the bottom grills. Although it was mentioned to use compressed air, I would recommend using something like Blu tack, or even tape to pull stuff out since that’s generally more effective than trying to blow it inward.
If it looks clear, it may be the microphone itself is not working properly in which case you’d be looking at replacing the lightning dock assembly.
