Well, it doesn't say max. boost, it says max. gain. And that refers to the absolute value. As I said, a design decision, not a bug.
As long as you keep the correction range below ~3000 Hz the UMIK-1 is usually flat without calibration applied.

I asked whether to point upwards or point straight ahead
Up to 1 kHz the UMIK-1 is pretty much omnidirectional, so there won't be any difference.
Usually, pointing straight between the speakers is the recommended way, but (somewhat ironically) as long as we cannot import any calibration files, the frequency response is actually flatter pointing upwards up to at least 6 kHz.
Here are the 90° calibration files for a couple of UMIK-1 samples at 90° (pointing upwards):
By comparison, here are the cal files for the same mic samples at 0° (pointing straight):
As you can see, at 90° these mic do require less calibration, so the error is noticeably smaller than at 0°. This is no longer true for higher frequencies above 6 kHz.
Did you turn off EQ before running RC?
There is a bug in the Android app (241204).
yes reset it delete preset disable EQ
