iOS devices have a microphone at the top of the device on the left-hand side of the headphone jack. This is where you will find the mic if your device does not have a FaceTime camera.
The built-in mic on an iPad is located near the top, tucked rather discreetly into a corner that’s formed by the edge of the device itself and the casing at roughly a 45 degree angle from your right ear when looking down on it. The mic is near the middle of this side, about 2 inches in from the right edge of the top border.

What is a microphone and how does it work?
A microphone, colloquially nicknamed mic or mike (), is an acoustic-to-electric transducer or sensor that converts sound into an electrical signal. Microphones are used in many applications such as telephones, hearing aids, public address systems for concert halls and public events, motion picture production, live and recorded audio engineering, sound recording, two-way radios, megaphones, radio and television broadcasting, and in computers for recording voice, speech recognition, VoIP, and for non-acoustic purposes such as ultrasonic metal detection.
How to use the mic on an iPad
There are several ways to use the microphone on an iPad. While it is primarily for listening, you can also use it to record sound. You can attach a microphone or headphones with microphone capabilities using the headphone jack at the top of the device. Third-party accessories are available that offer other setups. There are even apps you can download and use on your iPad that offer microphone capabilities.
