Settings -> Focus

[–] LostCree@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

In iOS 17 they added a feature that lets the FBI see what you see on your screen. That’s the symbol they use when they are connected……… . . . . . . .

It means Apple is trying to reach you of about your iPhone insurance ;)

[–] Furyian@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This is focus mode "Work" that is enabled.

[–] Uzairexy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Swipe down from top right corner, you will see the same turned on(colorful), tap on it again to turn it off

[–] felichen4@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Your focus session/mode. Go into settings and search focus

[–] Gargantua1994@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The focus mode "Work" is active. In the settings, you can find "focus" and see the list of all your focus mode. You can also go to the control center and enable/disable a focus mode

[–] BHHB336@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

your search history must look really funny 😭

[–] Acalthu@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Your work focus is enabled.

[–] zolly98@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It means there’s a focus mode active. It’s been asked so many times. I literally just googled it and it was the first result I find it hard to believe you couldn’t find anything about it. You can change focus mode in control centre.

[–] Gift_505@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

work focus, one of the do not disturb modes

[–] locololus@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It's just the icon that tells you work focus is on.

[–] sp1cynuggs@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Highly doubt you actually googled it considering this is one of the most basic features of iPhone now

Your iPhone is recommending you to taking a shower

[–] __adrenaline__@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

These kinds of posts always confuse me. You enabled the focus mode yourself, and then you ask what the icon means…

[–] AutomationWizrd@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago
[–] notch804above@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Your work focus is on

[–] bhodrolok@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago
[–] CommercialTicket9809@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

iPhone’s Profile icon

[–] beeable420@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

That’s the symbol that appears before your phone bursts into flames

[–] YashBaheti@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Focus mode set to “work”

[–] zoraski_gujju@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago
[–] Sylvurphlame@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

You’re in work focus. With no sarcasm or mockery, only genuine curiosity, how did you not know that? It won’t do it by default. You have to set it up.

[–] Buffalo047@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

That’s your work profile. After IOS15 apple introduced profiles to manage your phone. That symbol indicates that with profile is on and certain apps, Home Screen, notifications may be hidden from your knowledge. You can turn it off, or change it in settings >profile

[–] ForthRightAfter@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

its one of your Focus profiles.

[–] SeekNDstroy93@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Focus mode is turned on you can turn it off from control center.

[–] Kvpe@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Focus mode- work - in this case

[–] rebelliouslegacy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

That’s the Focus Symbol for Work, I use it and set the time for when I’m at work.

[–] MONOBullet1000@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It means the FBI Is spying on you.

[–] akotski1338@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It’s useful when you only want to get notifications from certain people and apps at certain times. For example I set up my sleep focus so I get no notifications except from my family in case there’s an emergency or whatever.

[–] thompsontwenty@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I was also very confused the first time Work Focus came on. At home, I set it to automatically turn on when I get to work, and all day I kept thinking about what it could be. Contact card? Calendar event?

[–] bojacker@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Swipe down from the Top right to open control center. There will be that icon saying "Work" focus. You can tap on that button to see other focus modes.

[–] Graham387b@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It’s focus mode, you can change it in the control centre

[–] I2TV@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

So… you were focusing on searching /s
