Before you begin, here are required steps to appropriately assess your microphone:

• 1. Ensure you are using Google Chrome and have a microphone connected to this computer.
• 2. To start microphone quality test, click on the microphone icon next to the gray box below. First time, you need to grant permission. Click allow on alert box at the top near address bar and wait for microphone icon to turn red.
• 3. To stop microphone quality test, click on the microphone icon again.
• 4. You can repeat steps 2 and 3 above.
• 5. Ensure you see at least 80% accuracy in this initial test. Accuracy of VoiceboxMD will be much higher.

Try speaking in verbatim the below text after the mic icon turns red (indicating that it is listening):
