After upgrading to iOS 14, users will see near the wave column on the iPhone's screen that a blue or orange dot may appear when opening certain apps. This is one of the new privacy protection features added by Apple. This new feature will notify users of which applications are using the recording and recording functions of the phone.
Specifically, if you open an app and see an orange dot in the right corner of the screen, it means that the application is using the microphone and recording what you say. When you use network calling apps and some major Apple apps like Siri, an orange dot appears.
So, if you do not make a phone call or make a voice command but see an orange dot appear, you can check to see which application is using the microphone by dragging down from the Quick Control Center (Control Center). ).
In previous versions, a red light would appear in the left corner of the status bar when an app recorded the user. On this latest version of iOS, orange dots and red lights appear at the same time.
Similarly, when an app uses the camera, a blue dot will appear to notify the user.
Earlier, this feature was also applied by Apple on a MacBook or iMac to announce the opening of the camera. In case the camera is granted access, the microphone will also be granted, so the orange dot will not appear.
The small notification bar above the screen shows the application that just accessed the camera or microphone, so users can pull down from the Control Center to check. Users can delete the application if not sure why the app uses these two features to avoid being recorded, recording secretly.
This new feature of iOS 14 received high praise from users, it will help users feel more secure when using apps.
