Ulanzi J12 mic not working with iPhone 14 Pro

Hello,

I have recently noticed that the Ulanzi j12 microphone has stopped working with my IPhone 14 Pro. The problem is that when the

mic receiver is connected to the Lightning connector and the microphone is paired, the sound is constantly being picked up by the iPhone microphone instead of the Ulanzi.

Previously there was no such problem and, in addition, I checked on an older model IPhone 13 and there the external microphone worked fine. So it comes out that it is not a problem with the Ulanzi microphone but with the IPhone.

Are there any settings that may have blocked the external microphone from working?

Best Regards,

Bartek

There are no settings to enable an external mic. Does Ulanzi have a microphone app and is it updated? You might try deleting the app and downloading again, if applicable.

iOS 18.3 was released today. Have you updated your iPhone and tried again?

Have you checked the Lightning port for dirt, lint etc.? Do you have another cable to try? The cable could be damaged.

Hello,

Thank you for answer and sorry for late response.

Ulanzi doesn’t have dedicated application, it should work as plug and play.

Today I’ve updated to iOS 18.3 and it helped. Thank you very much!

Best Regards,
