How do I turn off my microphone on my iPhone 13 for instagram and Facebook?

I have looked everywhere and I don’t have the option to turn off my microphone (and camera). I have looked under general and focus.


My friend has a 13 and the same software update and she has the option to turn it off.


I would like the option for privacy from Meta.


Thanks for your help.

Hi you can disable each App’s access to the microphone and camera by going to Settings > Privacy & Security. Tapping on "Microphone" or "Camera" will open a list with applications that have requested access to it. In this list you can enable and disable the consent for each individual application.
