I have to do this when my grandma calls. Not because I have loudspeaker mode on, but because SHE has, but still talks with it against her face so she comes out extremely loudly on my end.

It's a bit harder when you started your relationship before smartphones (yes there are people that old)
I keep telling my wife not to do that and just talk normally because the microphone is designed for that ... instead, when I call her, I know she's holding the phone like this because it sounds like someone is shouting at me.
How do I use the phone and microphone to talk to people on my smartphone? ... simple ... I don't, ever.
If it's loud enough, I'll put my phone on speaker and still hold it normally, because the regular speaker on my phone fucking sucks and I can never hear shit.
