Just as an FYI for anyone on iOS that is still tolerating this egregious dark pattern example, I successfully used Distraction Control in Safari to block this popup. Details here https://support.apple.com/en-gb/120682

Is there a way to use it to hide the "microphone" button on Google? That's what keeps redirecting me to App Store if I accidentally click it once.

I tried selecting it in the distraction picker but it seems to hide the entire page.

Not that I can see. I just tried it and get the same issue you describe.
