Is a blinking red light to the left of the audio bar of the top of the iPhone 12 normal? Or am I being hacked or watched? It blinks every four seconds it seems. Also, someone impersonated my friend on Instagram and I stupidly gave them my number so I don’t know if that would have anything to do about the blinking red light.

That being said, are you seeing this light with your naked eye? Or is it being observed through a camera?
