So if the dots don’t appear when taking a screenshot, that confirms it is not an issue with the screen itself, fortunately.


So it may be dust, or lens flare. Can you go into a room, turn off all lights, except for a lamp in one corner of the room, and then face away from the lamp, and take a picture? If the dots appear, but your camera is not looking at a light source, it is probably dust. If the dots do not appear, it is lens flare, which is normal.


If it’s dust, have your camera cleaned: Genius Bar Reservation and Apple Support Options - Apple


If it’s lens flare, see this User Tip: iPhone Camera Lens Flare and Reflections - Apple Community

Hello uwufo!


Please take some more pictures around you with the issuing camera. Do the dots always remain on the same spot on the screen? Do they move around?


Also, go to Notes, and open a New Note. Now, after making sure Dark Mode is off, take a screenshot. Now, if readily available, send the screenshot to another device for a completely unbiased viewing. Do the dots appear on the screenshot when viewing them on the second device?


Looking forward to your reply!
