The green dot in the top right corner of an Android phone might seem confusing, but don't worry. We're here to explain what it is and what it means.
Like its competitor, the iPhone, Samsung has designed Android phones with several important alert icons. Some are more intuitive than others, but one that users often check is the green dot in the top right corner. While they know it means something is on, they don't always know which feature it's associated with.
Samsung says it added this feature to give users more control over their privacy settings. Once you understand its meaning, you'll know if you need to review your phone's privacy and permission settings.
