Bell with slash on home page, not iMessage

I understand the bell issue regarding iMessage but why do I have a bell with a slash on my home screen in the top left corner? What does this indicate and how to change it if I don't like that setting? Thank you

It may mean that the Mute switch is on. It’s on the left side of the phone, near the top.
