- What precisely on your device even alerts to microphone access?by OutOfHere

by cyanydeez - I did not have any meeting scheduledby telmop
- Last night at 4:00 AM, my Pixel 7 woke me up with Zoom's native voice prompt "Recording in progress", with the green mic indicator active on screen.
My phone was idle on my nightstand out of reach and no Bluetooth device was connected. No Zoom account signed in and no active meeting. I uninstalled the app immediately after taking the screenshot, so I don't have access to any logs. After waking up this morning I realized I shouldn't have uninstalled. Is there any way to get logs of what happened now?
I don't know what caused this, but it got me more paranoid about what runs on my phone. Has anyone experienced anything similar?
