Wrong placement of orange microphone indicator during calls on iPhone 15 only?

On the iPhone 15 the orange microphone indicator looks like misplaced on top right, almost touching the edge during phone calls. Screenshot from the home screen. Do you have the same issue? Is it only on iPhone 15 or also on the 15 Pro Max or previous models?



Maybe it is an unintended design glitch and would be of interest for Apple to fix it.

iPhone 15 Pro, iOS 17

Here same is happening; very strange. I contacted Apple Support; they made an appointment with Apple Store to check the hardware. I think it's not hardware-related, but a small bug in iOS.

Interesting. So, for me the orange microphone indicator shows up as following:


  • correctly on the screen that shows the contact that I call:
  • but when I open my homescreen during the call the mic. indicator shows up at the very right edge which looks like a design glitch and I assume not intended:
  • on the lock screen during a call also the mic. indicator looks wrongly placed at the very right edge:
