Red Microphone icon top left corner

I have an iPhone 11 Pro Max and I keep seeing a red microphone on the top left corner at the end of every LINE, WhatsApp, FaceTime, and I believe even an old fashioned phone call. Before on WhatsApp it would actually appear red during the call but after updates it went away. I am really concerned my iPhone and conversations and perhaps even typed conversations are comprised. Could anyone please help?

iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 14

Hi nut-hive,


It looks like you're wondering about the status icon on your iPhone. If that's correct, check out the following resource.

The section "If you see orange or green indicators in the status bar" explains what you're seeing.


Cheers.
