Are you talking about the small white dot to the left of the wi-fi signal icon? That's an overflow icon, letting you know there are more status bar icons or notification icons that can't fit in the status bar. If you swipe down the notification panel, you can see the rest of the notification icons.

Ok but earlier it was that one and one to the left both at the same time

Right, the one on the left was signifying that you had more notifications than could fit on that side of the status bar.

That's your notification dot, it couldn't fit anymore is what it's telling you so u have to clear notification one at a time in notification panel or all at once

I think I'm understanding now sorry it took a minute to figure it out. Thank you for your help and input

I think the somewhat unusual thing about your phone is that you often don't see the overflow dot on the right side, since those are system icons (like for cell and wi-fi signal, Do Not Disturb, etc.). It may be that your phone has some other system icons (that aren't on the typical Android phones) that might show up on that side, thus triggering the overflow. Or since the font seems bigger than usual, that forces the usual system icons to overflow because they're that much bigger.

I think most times we only got the "overflow dot" on the left side because we have too many text, phone call, emails, Facebook, temperature, etc notifications that can't fit across the top of the status bar. The "overflow dot" on the right probably not as common because usually not as many system processes going on.
