I have such a dot on a camera that's disabled. It seems to be a cautionary indication that something needs to be checked such as battery level, etc. I do see that you're connected to AC power so look for anything in the camera settings that may cause this.

Actually I think it means that the system has detected that the camera has been moved - so the activity zones might need to be readjusted.
At least that's what I've always found it to mean. One of my Ultras is showing that dot now, and when I look at the settings via my.arlo.com, it shows me this:

Weird I move two cams around a lot and forget to adjust the Zones but never saw that message or Yellow dot. Just did it today in a different location. Not saying @StephenB is wrong.

I had new yellow dots appear over the settings icons in the Arlo app for Android on all but one of my cameras. This occurred immediately after I switched to a paid subscription, having been on the free trial for some time. On clicking into settings there were no messages that indicated why the yellow dot was present. On further investigation I found that the only camera which didn't have the yellow dot was one where there were no activity zones created (none needed for that camera).
Making a tiny adjustment to the activity zones on each camera, saving those changes, closing the Android app and starting the app again resolved the problem - yellow dots are now gone. I assume this is bug currently present in the Android app - there were no yellow dots or other odd notifications when logging in via the web interface. Presumably the bug will be resolved in time. I hope this helps.
