It sounds as you have the Voice Control feature turned on. As per this Support Article: Use Voice Control on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


To turn Voice Control on or off after the initial setup, you can use "Hey Siri," the Accessibility Shortcut, or go to Settings, select Accessibility, then select Voice Control.
