An unknown microphone access indicator can be concerning, but there are several potential explanations and solutions:
1. Check Microphone Permissions:
- Go to Settings ➡️ Privacy & Security ➡️ Microphone.
- Review the list of apps with microphone access. If you see any unfamiliar apps, toggle off their access.
2. Recently Closed Apps:
- Sometimes, apps that recently used the microphone (e.g., FaceTime or Siri) may still show the orange indicator briefly. Ensure these apps are fully closed from the App Switcher.
3. Restart Your iPhone:
- A simple restart can clear any temporary software issues causing the microphone indicator to appear.
If the issue persists after these steps, it might be worth contacting 👉 Official Apple Support for further examination of your iPhone and get a resolution.

Hello!
Go to: Settings > Privacy and Security > Microphone. One of those apps is using the microphone. Try and switch them off one by one to see if the indicator will go away.
You may also want to try a Forced Restart.
Please let us know if the issue persists. Have a great day!
