I think iOS 26 is also just broken when it comes to the indicator, sometimes I’ve quit the Camera app and I’ve noticed the indicator will stay in use whenever I’m on Springboard. Not sure what they did this year to break it :/
If it's not a bug, then that's an information for you that the Camera is being used by whatever process is going on out there. Maybe if someone chimes in if they have knowledge about the green dot? Is it part of the OS as an app/process or does it have a parallel system independent of apps running?
On iPhone 16+, it uses Secure Exclave, https://9to5mac.com/2024/06/03/m4-ipad-pro-security-feature-...
When I dismiss the camera app, I still see green dot for a bit, then it switches to orange (microphone?) before it disappears completely. The little enclave is cute but *OS 26 has been so full of bugs that can you really say all this is working safely and as intended?
