So, for some reason my Firefox on Android went to voice control mode.

The URL bar has become uneditable, and on the right shows:

1) a microphone surrounded by a square or a box, or maybe a microphone in front of a screen, not sure. It could also actually be a maize plant seen through a window.

2) an "X" cross with a dot in the upper and lower wedge (wuh?).

The Firefox menu icon is gone.

Typing the microphone icon brings up a dialog box "Tap to speak" by Google.

"Get me out of this voice control mode, HAL!"

How do I do that? And why did I get into that mode in the first place?

Well, I got out of it by going into "Settings", "Device Maintenance", "Optimize Now" which cause FF to be closed.

Reopened it, and it's the default mode now.
