It's best to mute your mic when playing PUBG Mobile

PUBG Mobile is all the rage right now, but we have heard many people complaining about random chatter in the game. This happens with every multiplayer game, where some people keep their microphones on and broadcast their voice to all, which annoys many people. Chatter from other people can often distract you in PUBG Mobile and ruin a perfectly good game. Thankfully, there is an easy way to disable this chatter and focus on your game in PUBG Mobile, and we've broken it down into easy steps for you to follow.

How to mute voice chat in PUBG Mobile

Follow these steps to mute voice chat in PUBG Mobile.

  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.
