It means your phone is on vibrate.

Thanks. I found vibrate on tap that I turned off but icon remains. How would I turn off vibrate?

It may be that your volume is turned all the way down.

 

[GeordieMick2]

Thanks. Like i said i turned off tap vibrate and icon was still there, but later icon had gone.
Anyway, a vibrate icon, can live with that.
I'm pleased with the moto e5 play; cheap, does all I need.

Yes, but vibrate-on-tap being switched on would not cause any icons to show. I suggested that you may have turned the volume down to zero because doing that does cause the icon to appear. So the problem remains unsolved.

The common situation for the vibrate icon is for the sound system choice { sound, vibrate, silent } being set to "vibrate".

you are right; that was it, volume right down, icon appears. Thanks
