Is there a green or orange dot on your iPhone screen? Here’s what it means

Have you ever spotted a tiny green or orange dot on top of the iPhone’s display? Well, many may not be aware, but these are not something to worry about. In simple words, these are indicators for the microphone and cameras that help you to identify if an app or service is actively accessing them.

If an app such as an audio recorder that only uses the microphone is on, then the iPhone will display the orange dot. And, if an app using a camera is active, including the main camera app, then there will be a green dot on top of the display.
