Bluetooth

Under Bluetooth , My Devices, it lists CUBE, without the blue "i" in a circle to the right. I do not have a CUBE. without being able to click on an "i", I can not disconnect or "forget this device." It mostly shows up when I connect to another bluetooth device that i know, but unless I turn Bluetooth off and on again, CUBE stays listed in My Devices. Why is it there? is someone connected to my iPhone? I my neighbor hearing my music? Is this a security risk? Thank you

iPhone XR, iOS 15

A Bluetooth device that is listed without an i is a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) device; it doesn’t pair with the phone; instead it pairs with an app that you have installed on the phone. Whatever app is using the other Bluetooth device that you know is also using the CUBE BLE connection. This is commonly used as a control channel for the device.
