Small blue dot in iOS app

7 replies

A small blue dot has just appeared on the left hand side of my screen, when on a list of threads and when on a thread itself. Just wondering why it's there and if it's for anything? I'm on version 4.4.20 which updated today.

Hmm. It hide itself when I clicked on it...

It appears every time you download or update an app to show that it’s new. It only stays until you open the app for the first time, then disappears. As you found out...

I have never seen it (or noticed it) before, which is interesting.

I have the dot too. It's not what you think it is and is blooming annoying. I'm also iOS. App won't let me attach screenshots anymore either, that problem has been a few months.

My blue dot is like this 🔵 and it's on the right near the top of the screen when I'm read a thread or scroll topics. But not drafting this reply. I can email you my screenshot.

I will, if it ever comes back! It was not the iOS blue dot underneath the MN Talk app icon on my home screen that indicates an update, it was actually within the MN app when looking at a list of threads or within a thread when looking at posts. Not when writing a post.
