Microphone compromised?
Post Body

Hi, I have an Poco F3 has anyone had a problem of an app using your microphone without you knowing?

Notice how when youre in a call and you change the volume the "call volume" bar shows up and when youre not in a call its the "sound"/"media" volume pops up.

i sometimes notice when watching videos (tiktok/facebook/youtube) the sound quality changes (idk if you noticed but the sound is different when youre in call and not) so i try to press the volume button and the "call volume" bar shows. it goes away as soon as i clear the cache though.

this also happens when im just browsing the net not just when i watch videos.

my conclusion is that an app im not aware of is using the microphone? i checked the permissions settings and i havent given permission to any sketchy apps. i used to have an f1 and the apps i have are basically the same with my f3 but did not have this issue.

is there a way to check which app is using the microphone atm when the issue arises?
