iPhone: Circled Exclamation Point On Lock Screen?
I’m running iOS 17.6.1 on an iPhone 12 Pro.
After resetting iPhone settings without erasing all contents and settings, a circled exclamation point started to appear on the lock screen. It’s located on the right side of the date.
Here’s a screenshot:
I have not been able to figure out what this alert/notification is all about. Neither has it disappeared after multiple restarts. The settings are now back to what I had before reset. Nothing critical should be left out.
However, I have looked into things that could be culprits. I do not synchronize photos with iCloud. But this shouldn’t cause any errors since I have done so for years. Instead, I regularly download images to my Mac and, eventually, move them to external drives. Encrypted iPhone backups are also only on the Mac. Finally, I experience no network issues.
Is anyone familiar with other things that could cause the circled exclamation point on the lock screen to stay put? Any hints are appreciated! Thanks!
