What causes the Grey dot to appear on my iPhone screen?

A Grey Dot with white center appeared on screen. It appears to be a notification short cut. I removed the dot by going to settings - physical and motor- Touch-Assistive Touch.

other methods did not work. Will the Dot return?

Hi Rokusolution

Seems you accidentally activated Assistive Touch ?

If needed: Try going to Settings > Accessibility > Touch > AssistiveTouch, and turn that off.


All the best :-)
