Hello and welcome to Apple Support Communities kareem265,


I see you have a question about the microphone icon showing in the status bar on your iPhone. I'd be happy to help.


It appears that you have Voice Control enabled on your iPhone. Please see this support article for assistance with turning this off.


Use Voice Control on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


Hope this helps!

Have a great day!
