I noticed that after ios 27 update, the orange dot is always on even when screen is off. I’ve tried all the fixes like turning off microphone, voice control and every other solution but it didn’t turn off. Will it be fixed by the next update or not???

Original Title: Orange Dot
iPhone 16, iOS 27
Did you also force restart your iPhone?

Any chance, Vocal Shortcuts are enabled in the settings for Accessibility?
Look in Control Center and note exactly what apps have accessed the microphone.
Open Control Center, and at the top, you'll see the icon for the camera or microphone and which app was using it most recently.
If Control Center displays “Unknown Device” next to the microphone or camera indicator, it may indicate that an accessory connected via Lightning, USB-C, or Bluetooth — such as an external microphone, webcam, or certain headsets — is requesting audio or video input, but iOS is unable to fully identify the device.

Not every issue an individual encounters on their device can be attributed to an iOS update. If the update itself were the root cause, then every device running that same version of iOS would exhibit the identical problem. In such a scenario, the forums would be flooded with countless posts reporting the same malfunction, creating an unmistakable wave of complaints that no one could possibly overlook. The absence of such widespread reports strongly indicates that the issue is not systemic, but rather specific to the device in question.
Why is the orange dot always on after iOS 27 update?
