"Device added to your accont" keeps randomly appearing

For some reason on my phone it keeps saying that a Mac was added to the apple ID and it wont stop no matter what. The only mac device that's linked to it was linked for a while before this started today so I dont know why it would be doing this at all!

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 16

Wasnt anything serious, turns out I accidentally left something on top of the keyboard connected to it and it was making it do things. Makes me feel pretty silly now

If you feel an unauthorized person/app is remotely using, controlling or monitoring your device, then that is possible only if you have done one or more of the following Don'ts...

Don't hand over an iPhone to kids or to a stranger without Enabling Guided Access
Don't share Apple IDs
Don't Jailbreak
Don't share sensitive information pertaining to your device
Don't give in to Phishing
Don't plug in your device in Airports and Public places through third-party cables and trust the device. Beware of Juice Jacking. (Especially in India)
Don't leave your iPhone unlocked and unattended in public places like offices, schools, malls, etc.

If one of the above is true then quickly change the Apple ID Password and Return iPhone settings to their defaults.
