Thank you for your feedback

Be aware of the microphone location on your device, and make sure you don't cover it with your hand while you speak. The microphone is a small pinhole usually on the edge of your device, and there may be more than one.
Bring your tablet closer when you talk. Usually, having the microphone 6-9 inches from your mouth is the perfect distance.
Talk at a volume you would use with another person so as to be easily heard and Mobile Voice will pick up much clearer audio.
