Can't disable microphone / voice recognition on iPhone7 Plus

My iPhone7 Plus is recognizing my voice when texting, etc. I've done all the following:

  • Disabled access to the microphone for all apps
  • Disabled Siri completely
  • Disabled Dictation


The little blue microphone icon stays on in the upper right of the screen, next to the battery icon. I can't seem to make it go away. Running iOS 13.1.3.

I turned off Voice Control and that fixed the problem.
