Horizontally stitched screenshots showing a Google Meet call on the iPhone where the microphone mute icon is highlighted in active mute status while the lock screen displays a mute icon which is not selected and inactive.

Always been this way for months. ~~IIRC, the lock screen mute button is nonfunctional.~~ Mute functionality detailed here.

Latest Versions: iOS 17.6.1, Google Meet 260.0

I should report this bug to Google and not Apple, right?

This is on my iPhone.

In-app mic mute is limited to that app.

Muting the mic through the iPhone control panel mutes the mic across the entire phone.

It’s all dependent on the locus of control. An app does not control the mic across all apps, it only controls the mic within itself. The iPhone control panel, however, is the absolute master control: it controls the mic before any app.

Thanks so much for taking the time to reply.


No fair! Why does mine not work that way?

Signal operated the exact same way as Google Meet:

Slack was slightly different in that it 1:1 syncs mute states, but across Meet/Slack/Signal, my mic disables and I can’t use it no matter where I mute.
