**Original Discord Post by dhvl5 | 2024-07-24 11:38:41** Is there any way to disable the microphone indicator? The green dot on Android and stays open even after calling the `StopListening()` function. I am using WebGL build and also the red dot appearing in my Edge browser indicating that the mic is being used. It’ll have bad impression on the user side that the app is still using the mic even they’re not talking with the Convai NPC. ---

**Reply by dhvl5 | 2024-07-24 11:40:47** Actually screenshot doesn’t capture those mic/camera indicators on the Android platform. Let me give you the desktop browser one. ---

**Reply by dhvl5 | 2024-07-24 11:42:59** It stays on from the start of the application whether you’re holding the talk button or not. ---

**Reply by k3kalinix | 2024-07-24 11:50:29** This is an indicator used by the browser to show that the microphone is being used. It appears when you enable microphone permissions. ---

**Reply by dhvl5 | 2024-07-24 11:51:29** I’m aware, but it should not be visible when I hold off the talk key. This stays on forever and that means the app is listening. ---

**Reply by k3kalinix | 2024-07-24 11:55:56** If you test it on other sites, you will see that it shows up when you grant microphone permission. This is not the issue with Convai. You need to modify the Unity WebGL or Javascript code to make it disappear. ---
