In only one of my text groups, I have this audio message symbol and I inadvertently sent a one-minute audio to a whole group of people (😬). Thank all that is holy I didn’t say anything bad or talk about anybody. I can’t figure out how to get rid of it!
How do you get rid of red audio symbol in message text box. It is only one of my contacts that is affected

in my imessage text area I see that red record audio thing on the right, I often accidently hit it - I want that turned off, but i don't see a microphone icon in the bottom keyboard area on my iphone to try to toggle that off...
Tap on the microphone that is in the lower right corner, under the keyboard. This was really irritating me, and more than that, something near the top of the screen is activating voice message from within a conversation. It is really ******* me off, and I can’t figure out what it is and how to turn it off.
tap the microphone in the bottom right corner under the keyboard once, then once there’s a circle around it tap it again. that’ll make the red go away
Thank you for this advice. I am experiencing the same issue, however, I do not have the microphone icon, only the voice recording icon.
I’ve attempted to press it and hold it down hoping that it would disappear and the microphone icon will return, but it doesn’t happen.
Like the previous poster, it is only appearing in two different text message conversations (which I’d prefer not to delete).
Do you have any suggestions?
Thank you.
Tap on the microphone icon to turn it off.
Wonderful wonderful — yes this removed the red symbol that was constantly showing just on one conversation chain. Thanks a million!!

from what i’ve seen, the red appears after using the voice recording feature. whether it was an accident or not, the voice recording feature was used and i’m assuming imessage thinks you want to use it again, so it puts that button there for convenience. but clearly, it can be quite annoying
The red icon for audio message will not disappear in my text messaging. I have no microphone on the bottom right of my keyboard, and going into Settings, General, Keyboards, and turning off Enable Dictation does NOT make it disappear in my iPhone 14 Plus. Nothing is working!!!!! Any other suggestions? Thank you!
You haven’t got a microphone symbol either just the five red lines I’ve got. Plus the raise to listen is disabled in settings, so I’ve got no idea how to get rid of it ☹️
I was about to post your exact issue and then (again) tried the microphone button. By turning it on (lower right of screen) and then turning it off via the microphone icon that appeared in the message line, the red audio symbol disappeared. Go figure. Good luck.
Hey all!
If you don’t see the microphone icon on the bottom right, go to Settings > General > Keyboard and turn on “Enable Dictation”. In fact just turning on Dictation alone may get rid of the red audio symbol.
I believe it’s just a new feature/function, you can see it referenced in this article:
Send and receive audio messages on iPhone - Apple Support
Hope that helps!
Thank you. I actually just figured that out. Easy fix and yet didn’t even try it.
KO
Man you are my hero! Was driving me nuts! I feel dumb lol. Thank you, sir!
