Good Afternoon Terri,


We see that you're looking for information on why you see a red background appear around the time when you use CarPlay. We'd be glad to provide some information on this.


When you see the red appear around the time within your status icons, this is indicating that the iPhone is either recording sound or your screen. For additional information on this, take a look at the section labeled "If you see blue, green, or red in the status bar" of the following resource:


Status icons and symbols on your iPhone


We hope this is able to clear up your question on what you're seeing.


Have a great day!
