Why is the red dot not showing up when I start recording on my iPhone 15?

Not sure what happened as it used to work normally, tried to remove and re-add the screen recording button but that did nothing. This is on an iPhone 15 by the way. Let me know if anybody knows the solution to this problem.

Hi, thanks for this but it only worked once and then it went back to not showing the red dot again unfortunately. Tried a force restart again but it didn't change it. Do you have any further advice?


If you are not running iOS 17.6.1, update, and test again.


If you are running iOS 17.6.1 and it is still not working as expected, and if a backup and factory reset and restore doesn’t clear this, then you’re headed for a discussion with Apple Support.
