Microphone being used by unknown
The microphone orange dot indicator has been turning itself on. It says it was used by “Unknown”. I think my battery drains faster too.
What the heck is going on?

Hello Marcos Kirsch,
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you are questioning which app is using your microphone. We definitely understand that can be a concern and we'd love to help. Let’s start by reviewing this article: Status icons and symbols on your iPhone. If you remain unable to locate the app using your microphone, we’d suggest closing all unnecessary apps down and reopening one by one to see which one was the reason for it. This process is explained here: Close an app on your iPhone or iPod touch.
Please let us know if you have follow-up questions about this issue, or if the issue remains unresolved. Have a great day!
