The Mic Switcher feature allows users to intentionally toggle their microphone between their party and within the app. This assures users who they are talking to while hearing both channels.

This method returns whether the microphone is currently available to the app. This can be used to show if the user’s voice can be heard by other users.

Returns true if the app has access to the microphone. Otherwise returns false.

If the user doesn’t have access to the mic switcher system, calls to this API will return an error with the message: null return when getting microphone availability state. This can be reported to the user.

The app queries to see if the app has access to the microphone. When the app doesn’t have access to the microphone, it shows a muted mic symbol. when the app has access to the microphone, it shows a green mic. A UI element is available that allows users to select whether to use Party or an app’s VOIP chat.
