Bluetooth icon not showing on iPhone

I think since updating to the newest iOS, there has been no icon in the menu bar to show that my Bluetooth is turned on. Anyone else have this issue or know how to fix it?

That is by design with the new update, if you're connected to headphone, you'll see an headphone icon.. Not sure what the icon is if you connect to your car.

That's correct. It's by design. It was removed. It served very little purpose as it did not differentiate between being connected to a bluetooth device, and not being connected. It only indicated that bluetooth was enabled, and since there is very little reason to disable bluetooth (doing so does NOT save battery power), it's presence was deemed unnecessary.
