Fix Microphone Access
If dreamif.ai cannot hear you, it is usually a browser permission issue. Here is how to check and fix it.
1. Check browser permission#
Your browser needs to allow microphone access for the dreamif.ai site. If you see a blocked-microphone icon in the address bar, click it, allow access, and reload the page.
If Chat shows a message like "Microphone access is unavailable", make sure you are using a regular browser tab (not incognito or a restricted mode).
2. Check your microphone#
If the browser has permission but dreamif.ai still cannot hear you:
- Make sure your microphone is plugged in and selected as the input device in your system settings.
- On Safari, you may also need to allow microphone access in Safari > Settings > Websites > Microphone, then refresh the page.
3. Retry#
- Go to Chat.
- Click the microphone button in the message bar.
- Say something short to test.
Still not working?#
- Refresh the browser.
- Close and reopen the tab.
- Try a different browser (Chrome and Edge work best).
