No microphone option for apps

On my iPhone 6, certain apps are asking me to turn on the microphone. When I go into settings to turn the microphone on, there aren't any toggles for any apps (under the menu in the Settings app called "Microphone" and on the app's permissions). Not even the names of the apps are listed under the Microphone menu.
