Voice control won’t turn off - IPhone 13pro OS 16.3 Despite turning off Voice control in every setting, it’s menu keeps popping up on my screen. I’ve done everything in all Apple’s suggestions and it still comes up. For a phone that was over £1,300 in the U.K. this is simply not good enough. Please advise. I have no interest at all ever, in using voice control or Siri and wish it could be deleted from the phone.

Voice Dictation Visual Missing Hi, I’m using iOS 16 on an iPhone 12 Pro Max. I've noticed that when I'm dictating, I now see a little microphone pop up to enable stopping dictation, but I no longer consistently see the visual indication that I am dictating. It shows sometimes when I’m in Safari, but not in Messages at all. What happened to the sound-wave lines that normally show on the screen when dictating? Is this a glitch or a setting that needs to be changed? Extremely frustrating.

Bubble in text window when dictating Got a new iPhone with the latest update and a bubble with a microphone and it appears in the text message window when I dictate. It picks up every sound, whether it's somebody else talking or the radio playing as I'm dictating. Apparently, if you don't update to IOS 16, this does not pop up when dictating. Nobody at Apple, meaning the techies knew this. People that I work with have not updated and they don't have this problem. I only dictate my text, so this is driving me crazy as it covers up the text area as it pops on and off.. hopefully somebody has some suggestions on how to get rid of this. Also, everybody else has the iPhone 13 just like me.
