Hey all, probably better places to ask this but you all know everything. I got a oneplus 10 pro, and it has a very faint microphone icon in the top right. It’s not there all the time, but I’ve noticed it with firefox, and a few other apps.
I messed around with the mic permissions but nothing seemed to get rid of it.
What is it, and how do I make it not there?
This right here, OP. On my phone it’s
Settings -> Security & privacy -> Privacy Controls -> Permission manager
I bet if you remove FF’s mic permission and then open it you won’t see the icon anymore. My phone will put a little green dot in the upper right for an app that has permission to access location.
That’s kind of what I figured. Though Firefox shows as microphone is not allowed. But it def shows the icon.

Hmmm, no pop up, but I hear what you’re saying… What should i do?

OK, so it was blocked, I set it to ask every time, but it didn’t change the stupid icon.

Well… hm. Now I can’t manage to make my FF show the Mic privacy icon no matter how I set the permissions.
Mine are always shown inside the green background before it fades to the little dot though, if yours does that stock behavior with the permission icons and this is a different icon then I really don’t know.
