I really appreciate you being direct about this. I panicked thinking I got the wrong iphone after recording myself sing and realize that it had a bad microphone. This setting was actually all I needed, really, thank you so much♡
I love vlogging with my phone. I also love how impressed my family is with my videos when I throw in a random vlog with video from my DSLR after seeing a bunch of phone videos. They be impressed. Keeping grandmudder on her toes.
Cody you literally made this video as I decided today to use my IPhone 11 Waaaaay cool man! I agree the sound quality is cray cray GOOD! I love my workflow for just airdropping video from the phone to the MacBook Pro 2019. Seriously it’s a game changer.
OMG! Like the way you film this video. Short and helpful! Especially the way you film from far/side view to show us how you are exactly filming with your Iphone!
Also you can turn off phone noise cancelling in settings if you go to accessibility and if you scroll down to audio/ Visual turn off phone noise cancelling and then restart the phone it will make it a lot better to
I’m totally with you! I do some legit commercial film work as a side hustle but always loved the idea of vlogging so it’s hard for me to just use my phone as I’m familiar with professional gear. But, I proudly consider myself a casual vlogger and every clog on my channel is shot almost entirely with my iPhone! Much love brother ✌️✌️
I completely agree, I did my latest vlog on a GoPro 7 silver and asked for feedback and my audience said it did the “job” basically just stop worrying about the gear and tell the damn story !
We’ve been vlogging on our IPhone 11 and wanted to eliminate wind and focus our voices. We bought some fancy adapters, used a deity mic and after shooting todays video I regret not seeing your video sooner. Internal audio is king for sure. Nice video, super helpful convincing me only what my heart was already telling me in the first place! 😎👍
@@RCodyWanner To be honest I wasn’t expecting this to be an actual thing. I was seriously putting some stuff together. I think throwing these bad boys in a backpack is the solution I was looking for 100%. You’ve been extremely helpful. Thank you very very much! 🙏👍😎🎬
Nailed it! Love the tip here about audio settings, but REALLY appreciate the point about using the phone "as is" rather than trying to make it more than that... Or, at least not letting the "add ons" limit you
I agree with you dude! So many people get caught up on what equipment to use to vlog/make other videos that they don't actually end up making anything simply because they're like "oh I don't have the money/equipment to make it." In my opinion, the main point of your video - regardless of whether it's a vlog or not - is to convey a story, and all your equipment is just a way to tell your story just in a slightly better way. Some parts of some of the videos I make are also shot on an iPhone (7 plus that too), and as much as it hurts when thinking that I'm not using my Canon, when I ask people if they can spot the difference while watching the video on a phone, most of them just don't notice it. TL, DR - imo, how you tell your story plays a more important role in what you use to tell your story
I've been going through a similar thought process with my GoPro 7. I know it's not exactly the same scenario. I have all this extra garbage attached to the GoPro for "better vlogging." Strip it down, tell the story, get it done. That's what I'm shooting for this year.
Wowza... Thank you. I've been using an I phone for all my vlogs because that is all I have. I was always a bit ashamed but needed to vlog so bad it didn't matter. Gonna test that Stereo Audio off. These days I've been using the Rode Wireless Go. Sometimes I like it sometimes I DON'T. Your videos are always so helpful. Enjoy seeing you.
Man thank you so much! I have been shooting way more of my videos on my iPhone 11 lately. Being able to airdrop has made me so lazy and not picking up my big camera as much anymore.
while i know my way around a dlsr, something i didn’t expect was how socially awkward it is to film yourself with a bigger camera-for those in a similar position (where the act of filming yourself is getting in your way), using a phone or a smaller camera is super helpful.
We both have the same first name and I, like you, wasted money on the rode video micro before the phone came out and I lost so many shots trying to fiddle with the micro like an idiot. Additionally, I wasted money on a wide angle lens, a mirrorless camera body, and a rode mic pro and carried that giant rig when 90 percent of those day light shots could have worked fine on the iPhone. I'm so glad I saw this. SUBSCRIBED!
Hey Cody this is mind blowing helpful content! Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I’ve not read the comments because I can’t face it but can I trust that this internal mic will record singing as good as it does your voice? Your voice is basically like music anyway ... so I hope yes?! I’m a singer and musician and will use this phone to become an ultra mega star 💫🤩. Thanks again Cody for the incredible content 🙏👏.
Most of the times the iPhone internal mic is o.k. But when you are filming outdoors in windy conditions or with distance to the iPhone you need an external mic. I used wired stuff but this is very uncomfortable. Now I will test the Smartmike+
I agree.. when I started using my phone I felt like I was able to get more vids done faster and still looked good.. That audio tip at the end is clutch, going to try it out today..
THANKS! I appreciate you saving me some money on a useless mic. I thought the sound was pretty good on my iPhone 11 Pro Max, but, this confirms it. Also, thanks for the tip on the stereo sound toggle. ~Jane
quick question, vlogging in public, for you personally going back to daily would u still daily the gh5 or could u see yourself doing the iPhone 11 daily because its more convenient plus u don't get kicked out of places more? every time I bring my rig to a public place like a store or a mall I get kicked out or asked to put it away and shamed for no filming, its different if they say hey just so you know we dont allow that here. but then I pull out my phone and no one says anything, just something I observed as you walked through that airport and no one really cared LOLOLOL
I was agonising over the lapel microphone that I received today, as I don’t have the extension wire to connect to my iPhone pro. Was Google-searching on how to connect & looking to buy a new wire/microphone, then I came across ur video, n found out that this phone audio is good. I just got my new phone recently and wanted to start on my Vlogging too! Anyway, thanks for ur tips. 👍👍😊😊😝 subscribing to u!
I have an iPhone 8plus that I use often for recording on the go. I find that the headphones also make a great microphone but I carry a tripod and a Rode Mic LE with me whenever I think that i'll be recording somethign
I have a iPhone 11. I use my Canon SX? For Vlogging too. I need a mic for it but it does not have an input, I know, I know... The IPhone needs enough memory space it does not have. So I use the canon. iPhone for outside and inside the Canon. (I can not remember what number it is). I am at work and had a stroke so frequently forgets #. Any way, Any idea on what I can do to have a mic for the Canon. The GX ??? Has an input now but mine does not. Thanks Aloha
Great video Cody! I use my phone a lot when out and about. Nobody ever notices for the most part anyways. BTW. were you doing some air traffic controlling at the Harrisburg airport? LOL
I’ve been recording using the front camera and the audio sounds terrible! It is always peaking and scratchy in my videos, I had to delete sone becayse even others said it was bad. Is it because I’m using the front camera?
Thanks for the awesome helpful tip Cody really appreciate it.. very helpful and too the point learned a lot from your channel keep up the good awesome content God Bless
I don’t like the mic on the iPhone 11, I only use my external mic for vlogging. That said I’m mostly outside and a directional mic with a good wind filler is a must.
Thanks Cody! I’d debated getting an attachment to make my Rode mini or the old micro one I have attach to my phone but even with the iPhone XR I don’t think I need it. I’ll have to see if turning that setting off on my XR works like on the 11. I shot my last video on my phone because my GoPro was dead and I felt the image quality on the XR was much better. Had a clicking sound here and there but I think that was the Osmo 3 him all motor and some light music fixed that... Great video.
I have been using my iphone, from a 8 to 10r, and have used both a external and not external mics. i found the shure mic to be far superior to the mic on my phone becuase the older model iphones don’t have the sound quality and pick up all back ground noises where as the shure mic came with an app that allows me to change the focus of the audio to be more to what i need. especially becuase i sometimes do interviews or if i am in a crowded area if can get rid of the background noise better. sometimes i will use an actual interview mic with its own digital sound recorded if i want to make sure my audio for my interview is safe and good. But really it comes down to what kind of phone you are using, what kind of video you are recording and how important is sound quality.
I want to makr unboxing videos and would want to try not getting background noise. I was actually looking for a mic that will do such job but seeing this video, I want to try doing it your way. Thanks
Head to 2:30 to adjust the mic settings
It’s worth watching anyways,

bro i want to make a vlog through iphone back or from camera so do i have to turn off that record sterio sound button??
navraj singh for better results yes
Except when there is the slightest wind
OMG! Like the way you film this video. Short and helpful! Especially the way you film from far/side view to show us how you are exactly filming with your Iphone!
I appreciate this video. It inspired me to just iPhone Vlog without worrying about accessories
iPhone 11 is arguably the perfect vlog camera. Gr8 vid bro
Love that W I D E look. No Xtra layers. Stereo Off. All Business out Back !
My Note 9 is the same way. Has a really good built in mic. Sounds totally fine. I'll probably be using it a lot this year...
Also you can turn off phone noise cancelling in settings if you go to accessibility and if you scroll down to audio/ Visual turn off phone noise cancelling and then restart the phone it will make it a lot better to
Cody I loved the cut shots that showed how far away you were from the phone, super helpful!
Dude the ultra wide is so cool on the new iPhone. Makes it the ultimate in pocket shooting setup!

OMG, I am in the middle of filming this same question! I guess I will trash my video! Epic, Thanks
Why would you trash it? Your perspective is just as needed ✊🏼
Jeffrey Eatley yes make your video becuase there might be others who won’t see his and get more out of your perspective!!!
Man thank you so much! I have been shooting way more of my videos on my iPhone 11 lately. Being able to airdrop has made me so lazy and not picking up my big camera as much anymore.
The problem with the iphone is the wind noise outside. I am looking for a way to sort out that and os not easy to find a way.

This awesome Cody I'm teaching teenagers here in Australia and this simple piece of information from you is awesome thank you so much
Thanks Cody. This was eye opening.
Thank you 🙏

Love it cody! Have never seen that audio hack in the iphone.
You r the best broo , very helpful video and tittle which help alot
Thanks for this
2:30 Turn "stereo audio" off (to record audio with front canera only) & in editing add a 7.5 level amp limiter to get loud without peaking.
I have since stopped using that high of a limiter amp - I’m at 3 now

Thanks 🙏🏽. But if I wont to do a Vlog in the nature ad usare windie? Must I ha e a External Mic?
What about outside in the wind? What are your thoughts

Amazing video as always
how is the mic for the pixel 4?
Nice video. Is there any microphone that is small so I can film inside stores? So that I don’t have to shout and fight with the background noise?
I am gonna buy this for vlogging what are your recommendations guys for accessories or other options??
I already have an external mic, but the mic on the phone is definitely usable
Exactly what I needed to hear 😘
Preach!
do we need application for using external mic
Nope

U could get a 'BOYA' mic
Thanks, saludos desde México!
I have been using my iphone, from a 8 to 10r, and have used both a external and not external mics. i found the shure mic to be far superior to the mic on my phone becuase the older model iphones don’t have the sound quality and pick up all back ground noises where as the shure mic came with an app that allows me to change the focus of the audio to be more to what i need. especially becuase i sometimes do interviews or if i am in a crowded area if can get rid of the background noise better. sometimes i will use an actual interview mic with its own digital sound recorded if i want to make sure my audio for my interview is safe and good.
But really it comes down to what kind of phone you are using, what kind of video you are recording and how important is sound quality.
So does it need bumping up with post production, or is it fine just as is?
In this video it is bumped up quite a bit (probably too much actually) - but yeah, I would still add a limited to make it louder
I want to makr unboxing videos and would want to try not getting background noise. I was actually looking for a mic that will do such job but seeing this video, I want to try doing it your way.
Thanks
