Why is there a small green circle on front camera on iPhone XS Max?

When using my front camera on my iPhone XS Max - there is a small green circle? It is not on the back camera - I have tried to clean the front lens but not sure what this is?

Hi Tizliz,


Thanks for your post! I understand you're noticing a green circle when using your front facing camera. Is the green circle visible on every photo you take with your front facing camera? Is it also visible when using Portrait Mode?


If you haven't already, refer here:


If the camera or flash on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch isn't working


Also, if possible, perform any software updates available:


Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


Let us know what you find out!


Take care!
