What does the blue ring around a contacts picture mean? Not the transparent location ring but the solid ring around a picture, sometimes it’s blue others it’s blank. Why does this happen and what is it for? Please see pic for reference. **Again NOT BLUE circle showing approximate location** but blue ring around contact name/photo of contact.

Clearly you did not read what I posted or even look at the photo. Automatic bot clearly! So if A real human could answer or help that would be great! I am posting another photo to clearly show the question that I am asking as well as many many many others. And If a ******* bot answers again clearly apple don’t even know there own system!
