Why is there a random voice coming from my Iphone XR?

I was browsing Instagram and all of the sudden i started hearing weird noises and voices from my phones speaker. It was like I picked up a call but they couldn’t hear me but I could hear him. It freaked me out so i recorded it some of it (https://streamable.com/pzk8hj) It happened for a good 2-3 mins until it randomly stopped. I think I either picked up someone’s phone microphone from a cell tower or someone is hacking my phone and they turned on their mic by accident lol. Does any have any idea what it could be? Thanks 🙏

iPhone XR, iOS 13

Hello Ecuador,


Do not worry about someone hacking your iPhone. If your iPhone is not jailbroken then hacking it is virtually impossible. Did you hear those voices even after getting out of Instagram or did you not check that? I think you are on right track. It was either something related ton instagram (I do not have instagram to confirm) or you picked up someone else's cellular discussion briefly.

If this continues then do give a call to your carrier and see if they can sort things out.
