Eight white dots appeared on the edge of my iPhone 15 Pro Max display

Eight white dots appeared on the edge of the iPhone 15 PM display, evenly spaced, which are not part of the icons and other graphic elements on the display. In fact, they even move slightly further away sometimes. Anyone know what is causing this and how to remove these dots?

Hello~ Click on below as they are Visual Motion cues to prevent car sickness…


Use iPhone more comfortably while riding in a vehicle - Apple Support*


  1. *Go to Settings  > Accessibility > Motion.
  2. Tap Show Vehicle Motion Cues, then tap an option. If you choose Automatic, animated dots appear on the screen when iPhone detects that you’re riding in a car or other on-road vehicle; the dots are hidden when the motion stops.
  3. To manually show or hide Vehicle Motion Cues, open Control Center, tap , then tap an option.
