Hey, i recently took brand new upgrade to s25 ultra, And I noticed something weird, When Im typing text message I hear a sound like I would press microphone icon to record voice message, also I can see a green dot when this happens, and Im not using microphone as you expected as Im writing text message.
I tried to disable and enable permission to microphone ,same as reinstalling the app, but think still happpens, Its like when phone detects some sound from surrondids this is happening.
Kinda annoying as Im confused why microphone shows as used for about a sec , when you actually not .
Not sure if this is a bug app, or phone, but Im curious how I can fix that or If I can.

Hello 👋 @KylVie
So the green dot just means the app is accessing the camera or microphone.
You can go into the Settings > App > WhatsApp > App Preferences and change permissions there.
If i can be of any further help please don't hesitate to ask 😎
I sometimes see this too when using WhatsApp.

The advice I offer is my own and does not represent Samsung’s position.
I'm here to help. " This is the way. "

Yeah, but honestly I never had this before, Microphone icon same as sound used to show and play, when I was actually recording(using microphone) not when texting. I dont see a point when microphone is activeting when you are actually texting not recording any voice message or actually during voice/video conversation, I will have to have a look if this happens in others app or only whatsapp.

I checked on messanger,snapchat as well, same thing, when Im writing text message I have microphone icon and sound, and honestly its happening really often which is annoying when you typing and hear a sound like you would start voice recording, Not gonna lie this starts to annoy me more and more, Sure I can remove permision and so on, but not a fan or turning that off and on, whenever I will need to use it because of that, Curious if Im only with that issue, and I would me easier to find if this is more a app, software bug
