    Questions.

    The meter doesn’t move. What now?
    Check whether the microphone is muted. If not, click Choose a different microphone on your computer. On your phone, pick another one from the list.
    My microphone isn’t in the list?
    Connect it again and open the list once more. On Windows, you only see the names once Notuly has access: then click Allow microphone.
    Does Notuly also hear the others in an online meeting?
    Test it on your computer: click Settings in the sidebar, then Audio, and then Play test sound. If the meter under System audio moves, the other side is included.
    When should I report a problem?
    When the meter doesn’t move even though the right microphone is chosen. Then see Report a problem from the app.
