Q: The mic does not work!
A: Follow the video below to check if USB receiver is recognized by computer and if receiver and transmitter paired. If not, just follow the tutorial to change frequencies (from 2:50 to 3:07) and reset the whole system (from 3:10 to 4:00).
Q: Does K031/K031B wireless lapel mic work with phones?
A: Yes, it does. But you need a USB type A to type C or lightening adapter and we have confirmed that it works with: Samsung S and Note series of 7/8/9, iPhone 5-8, XS MAX, Sony Z series, Goolge Pixel 2 and Huawei Mate and P 20. If you are using model that is not listed above, as long as the released date of your phone is similar to those mentioned models, the mic should still work.
Q: Will this work with a Bluetooth speaker?
A: In order to give adequate sound, that Bluetooth speaker should be more than 25 watt you can find a power bank to supply power for receiver and an audio cable to connect USB receiver with speaker.
Q: What can I do to increase volume?
A: 1.Turn up the level of input and output to around 80% on computer.
Windows: Go to control panel→Sound setting→Recording Device→right click “USB PnP Device”→Properties→Levels. Same goes for output volume on "Playback Devices".
Mac: System Preferences→Sound→Input/Output→Input Volume/Output Volume
2.Do have to aim the mic toward the mouth, seating it approximately 9 inches below. When using head-worn, you may need to take off the foam cap to check if the capsule is pointed directly to your mouth.
3.If it is possible, please try the speaker that has over 25 watt power.

I was wondering if we can purchase a second reciever to use on a different computer? I am teaching “dual” classrooms which means I run a google meet in both rooms but can only be in one room at a time. I’d love to be able to go between rooms and still have the mic work in both rooms, but the antennea does not work if I go into another room. thoughts?
Thank you
I have tried all the solutions you have provided. Is there are warranty on this product? If so, I request that a replacement unit be shipped to me.

I read all the other comments and it sounds like there are problems with this mic. I will try a replacement one more time before I spent my money else where.
Is there a way to turn down the gain on the K031B?
I had purchased my K031 wireless a few days back and was going to start using it today. Originally I was unable to hear or use the mic, but doing the reset step (press set 10 times so that 564 was displayed and then plug in the USB adapter and press set again) was able to make the mic feature functional. I have confirmed that the default audio device for both recording and playback each is the USB PnP Audio device. Turning the volume up to 100% did not improve. I have used two sets of fresh batteries and tested on two different Windows 10 PCs (and rebooted one of them) with the same results. Attempting to cycle through the frequencies only resulted in me having to do a reset step again. The mic feature was tested first by the meter in the sound properties and then using Voice recorded to record and then using a different playback device to verify.
Assistance with this matter of getting playback functional as well would be appreciated.
