I want to turn off the Blue dot and Microphone in top left hand corner of my iPhone 11. This driving me nuts. I must have turned this on by accident but I dont want it.
Thanks Andy. This is my new iPone 11 Pro
Hi Andy Denny,
Thanks for reaching out here in the Apple Support Communities. Congratulations on your new iPhone 11!
I understand that you see a blue dot with a microphone icon in the upper left of your screen and would like to remove it.
I'm glad to help with this.
This icon means that some app or feature is requesting the microphone to be active. It's likely to be something in Accessibility, such as Voice Control.
This explains how to disable that:
Control iPhone with your voice - Apple Support
Let me know if this helps.
All the best.
