OK, could we please ask - did you access the website before we made the changes? If so - have you tried clearing your browser cache?
Just tried is now for the first time, 8 hours since you commented and it instantly asked for my microphone and I instinctively blocked it.
Thanks for letting us know - we've realised we were unclear with our initial correction: the modal that asks for mic permission and explains that all audio processing is done in-browser now only appears when 'Record' is pressed, so users can check out the rest of the website.
No I don't think so. It definitely popped up before I pressed anything for me.
