Troubleshooting Green-Dot:

A. About this Green Dot:

1. Go Here: About the Orange and Green Indicators in your iPhone Status Bar - Apple Support
2. As it Reads: A green indicator means either the camera or the camera and the microphone are being used by an app on your iPhone.

B. Close All Apps:

An app is accessing your audio. So, close all apps. Hold you finger down as you swipe up. Then, close all of these open apps, by sweeping up wkly for all apps.

C. Disable Camera:

1. Go To: Settings
2. Tap: Screen Time
3. Tap: Content & Privacy Restrictions
4. Tap: Allowed Apps
5. Tap: Camera (so that it is dulled out)
