What Does This Phone Symbol Mean? by DesChyko(op): 6:27am On Sep 24, 2019
Switched my phone on this morning and saw this symbol.
I tried to get the meaning but couldn't get a convincing explanation. I have only 'location' running but will uninstall third party apps one after the other if I fail to get what it is,

I brought a replica of the icon here on Nairaland to see if you can help me out (phone with box symbol)

For now, I've removed my SIM from the phone and left it turned off because I'm so not comfortable with that.

I already googled it.
But the answers I got were more confusing hence my decision to ask here instead.

Smile does. I've used it and is 100 percent clearer than regular phone calls.
