If there is a large circle enclosed in a grey box that appears as an overlay on your iPhone screen, your phone's AssistiveTouch feature is enabled. This accessibility feature makes it easier for users to navigate the iPhone when they have trouble using their fingers to touch down on the screen. To turn this function on or off, go to the Settings menu, access your phone's General settings and select "Accessibility." On the accessibility menu, you can toggle the AssistiveTouch feature on and off.
