Scott and list. I know not to just thank people on the list, but here is the thing. DropVox never asked me if I wanted to use the microphone. So, it was nice to know how to do it. I'm not sure why I was not asked in the first place, but keep that in mind if the same thing happens to you.

You will see a list of your apps that can access the mic with a on/off status for each.
