iOS 16.4 is finally out in the wild for Apples best iPhones , meaning youre now able to activate Voice Isolation a neat little tool that blocks out ambient noise during cellular calls to prioritize the quality of your voice.

The feature was previously only available on VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) calls made through apps like WhatsApp, but Apple opted to make
Voice Isolation compatible with cellular iPhone calls in its latest software update.

Youll need to own an iPhone SE (2020) or newer for Voice Isolation to work, and in this article, we explain how to activate the helpful new iOS 16.4 feature .

First things first: you wont find a Voice Isolation toggle buried in your iPhones Settings. Instead, youll need to do some swiping while hosting or receiving an actual phone call to activate the feature.

So, when on a call, swipe down from the top right of your iPhone screen to access the Control Center. Once there, tap Mic Mode (the little microphone icon) then Voice Isolation. Its as easy as that. Thankfully, the feature will remain active for future calls, too, so you wont need to repeat the above process every time.
