Apple’s iPhone Users Are Justifiably Concerned By The New Meaning Of The Orange Dot On Their Screens

For instance, my phone’s screen displays a green dot when I pick it up and use the camera, and it briefly turns orange before shutting off completely when I close an app.

In essence, that’s my phone alerting me that the lens and microphone are in use since I’m using it as a camera. That’s pretty clear, but you should also be aware of the other apps you have open.

Go into your settings and adjust the permissions that different apps have to use your camera and microphone if you’re concerned about the dot showing up.
