Hi,
I encountered a strange icon on my iphone 15 pro’s dynamic island (picture attached). I haven't found any information regarding this icon and I don’t know what does it mean.
any suggestions?

The operative word here is QUICKLY; and try it a couple of times, the timing is a little tricky.
So far this issue has only been seen on beta versions, which, almost by definition, are known to be buggy. If they weren’t the would be the public release, not a beta.
As to why it hasn’t been patched, it isn’t a serious bug. At any given time there are thousands of bugs in any software as complicated as iOS. They are prioritized by the QA team, and the most serious get the most attention. As there is a workaround for this issue (restart the iPhone→Restart your iPhone - Apple Support) it is very low priority.
Did you try to hard restart the iPhone?
Same, however, it almost looks like it’s telling me to charge the device. Plugging it into a charger did nothing. Once I did a restart it did resolve the issue too. I can’t imagine it just blew that icon on the Dynamic Island for fun though. There has to be a reason.
I got this icon after I plugged in an external drive to my iPhone 15 Pro for recording ProRes video to a thunderbolt drive. However, it did not go away after I unplugged it. I am not sure why this bug has not been patched, because it has happened to me with other things I was doing with the dynamic island, ex. Airdropping.
But I’m saying the issue is also on my wife’s phone, hers was the control so that I could see if I changed mine, if it would fix it. I’m saying it isn’t just on the unreleased version so that’s why I’m confused.
Well you said it had been only seen on beta versions (not sure why you can say it) so that’s why I was bringing it up, because it isn’t just on betas. I think that is completely legitimate. Were you the one removing my posts, or is it a bot?

Fellow users like Lawrence cannot remove posts. The only people who can remove a post are the Hosts. They are real, live, very overworked Apple employees. One of their main jobs is to make sure that we all follow the rules.
For me the same. Didn’t find any info about it.
Tap on the icon to see which app it relates to.
Nothing happens. I’ve tried to click, keep pressing, etc. and nothing.
D you have an accessory connected? Might be what it’s for or showing.
No.
Just tried the restart and it worked.
What does the Dynamic Island's blue cable icon means on iPhone 15 Pro?
