Sort of, but not quite.

It didn't used to be in the app. That is what has caused the kerfuffle.

The app updated and suddenly users were presented with the mic and it's related options/functions. A mic they didn't know what there.

The mic was unknown to users until an app update "outed" it. At which point google copped to it.
