Green indicator for camera.

So my iphone7 was locked on the floor. I picked it up and noticed the green light at the top of the screen was on, indicating that an app was using my camera. I don’t particularly feel comfortable with apps using my camera willy nilly, without me opening an app for that particular purpose. Has anyone else experienced this? How do I see what app is doing this? And how do I stop it? Thanks

When you picked it up did you accidentally touch the Camera icon on the lock screen?
