### Showing dots while recording voice ambient

**Affected Devices:** Android with Agent app\
**Issue:** The ambient voice recording works, but sometimes (not 100%) it shows 3 three dots in the status bar.\
**Workaround:**

* The dev team is asking the Google team whether displaying a very small dot (only " ") in the status bar will be treated as spyware. Please note that we are following Google's policy, so we must let end users know what happens to their phones (being recorded). If not, Google will treat it as spyware, and that is not what we want.
