If you see orange or green indicators in the status bar 

With iOS 14 and later, you may see an orange or green indicator in the status bar on your iPhone. These indicators appear when the microphone and/or camera are being used by an app.

  • An orange indicator  means the microphone is being used by an app on your iPhone.



  • A green indicator  means either the camera or the camera and the microphone are being used by an app on your iPhone.
