Apps cannot use the microphone on iOS 14 without your awareness. There is a little dot that will show up at the top of the screen if an app has recently used microphone or camera. Hopefully this can assuage your paranoia.
- zarq 6y agoThe dot seems to not be interactive, i.e. I won't be able to find out which app it was, and what it did. But it's a start!

At the top it'll say what app was using the mic or video. https://i.judge.sh/frank/Derpy/chrome_0aklMR0vP4.png https://i.judge.sh/frank/Derpy/chrome_0aklMR0vP4.png https://i.judge.sh/careless/Flutter/chrome_Vm3HAfRnaQ.png https://i.judge.sh/careless/Flutter/chrome_Vm3HAfRnaQ.png
- hackmiester 6y agoThe dot is just for the foreground app. If a background app uses the mic, your clock turns red (for recording) or green (for a phone call) in an even more obvious way, and tapping it takes you to the app that is doing so.
