Hello Ddotecirp,
It sounds like you have a question about the blue dot on your iPhone. You’re in the right place for answers.
This is an indicator that an accessibility function like Voice Control may be on. Try tapping Settings > Accessibility to check.
If you're seeing something different, let us know, and also let us know what actions you're taking when that dot appears.
