If I understand you correctly this happens when you turn on the phone from a powered off state. It means that you haven’t updated iOS. The current version is 14.5.1. That was a cosmetic bug in 14.4; the Apple logo should stay on until the phone finishes its startup process, but it came on and went out.


If you mean something different please elaborate.
