  1. Start a match in PUBG Mobile. This can be in any mode, including sandbox.
  2. On the top-right, under the gear icon, tap the speaker icon and select the mute icon.
  3. You can choose Team instead of mute if you only want to hear what your team is saying. This only works if you are in a team game. If you select All you can hear everyone else who's playing.
  4. Tap the microphone icon which is below the speaker icon. Tap the mute icon.
  5. Instead of mute, if you select Team, your teammates will be able to hear you. If you select All, everyone can hear what you say.

If you mute the speakers, you cannot hear any other players talking. If you mute the microphone, nobody can hear your conversations. There's no easy way to permanently mute the microphone in PUBG Mobile without entering a game. However you can try these steps to lower the volume temporarily.

  1. On the PUBG Mobile home screen, tap the gear icon on the bottom-right.
  2. Tap Audio.
  3. Under Voice, slide the Microphone volume to Low.
  4. Next, slide the Speaker volume to Low.

This will reduce the volume to a bare minimum but may not entirely mute audio.
