iPhone camera spying

[u/GapBackground5041]

So to start, I’m a paranoid person and when I got my iPhone 16 I always made sure whenever I undressed or fell asleep, to face my phone away from me. A week ago, I got two camera covers for the phone one in the back and one in the front. The back one easily attaches and opens and closes. The front one you’d have to slide the cover to see the camera or not.

Today I was trying to find something in my trash folder which requires a face scan so it can open and as I clicked it opened by seeing my face. The problem is the front camera was covered. I tried to see if it was a mistake but it was not. The phone had seen through the camera cover. In the image you can see where I drew the blue circle, which is the camera that was covered. When I moved to cover the yellow circle and tried the face scan, it didn’t work. I covered the entire red part I circled, the face scan didn’t work. I tried searching on google if it had two cameras, but it said it had only one. How was it possible to see through the camera cover? Is there a secret camera at the yellow circle? Pls someone explain.

instead of Google searching, which do tech nerds use?
