The green dot in the upper right corner of your Android might seem confusing, but don’t worry. We will explain what it is and what it means.
Much like its iPhone competitor, Samsung has designed its Android phones with several important alert icons. Some of these are more intuitive than others, but one in particular that users ask about frequently is the green dot in the upper right-hand corner. Users know it indicates something is on, but they do not always know what feature it is linked to.
Samsung says it has included this feature to help customers feel more in control over their privacy settings. Once you know what it means, you will know whether or not you need to review your phone’s privacy and permissions settings.
