Doorbell 2-Way Audio Not Working

Hi GymKeys,

Assuming that your camera has already auto-updated to the latest firmware, you shouldn't be having trouble. Just press and hold the mic button (you should see a blue pulsing around your finger to indicate that it's active).

One possible issue is that the camera might not have the best reception where it is. In cases like that, the camera will prioritize the image quality, and audio function might be decreased. Try temporarily reducing the video quality in the camera settings. That will reduce the amount of bandwidth that the camera requires for the video, leaving more for the audio to go through.
