iphone 14 pro max won't recognize lavalier
This morning while I was attempting to use the lavalier mic with my iphone 14 I accidentally told hit the "headphones" option. There now appears to be no way to get the phone to accept this particular device as anything other than headphones. Which is a HUGE problem.
So far I have tried the following:
- Changing dongles
- changing microphones- it will recognize a different microphone as external microphone if I use it in voice memos first
- plugging in wired headphones and then trying the lav mic again - nothing changes
- waiting an hour while my phone was in lock screen and trying again
- changing the accessories option to on and also back to off
As soon as I plug this particular device into any dongle, the phone immediately recognizes it as headphones. There must be some way for that to be changed. I'm a human, sometimes I make mistakes, I really need this thing to work and so far the help answers related to this topic have been supremely dismissive. I can't possibly be the only person who has ever erroneously told a phone it was headphones when I was in a rush. PLEASE HELP.
PS - No, it is not a problem with the device as it works with other phones just fine.
