I would like to see if can use my iPhone 7 as a microphone for a home function.
Have a Logitech Bluetooth audio unit connected to the Bose and it works fine with Apple Music from the iPhone.
Tried a couple of microphone (free) Apps but no joy.
Any suggestions?!
Thanks

Hmm...its not an app or anything, but sometimes keeping it simple is best?

Just get another phone, and call it? Plug it in as a 'headset'. Now you've got your iPhone as a wireless microphone?

theres an app called megaphone in the app store.

Assume you have a bluetooth reciever plugged into an audio system or some kind of bluetooth speaker?

Then theres jaycar with cheap mic's and long mic cables to plug into your audio system. Just remember you cant plug mics into any old input.

Latency of bluetooth will make this most unpleaseant for anyone to talk over. Phonecall even worse.
