Icons flickering

I have my iPhone XS Max for about 2 months. Since I bought I noticed when I move among apps (already opened) sometimes the “window” flickers, I decided to recorded and I took a screenshot, as you can see.

It also happens when I move among my icons, I recorded that and had a screenshot, you can see that my icons flicker and I can see only my wallpaper (about 1 second).

I know it is not something big, but very annoying sometimes.

Does it happen to you too? A bug or hadware issue?

iPhone XS Max, 12

Hello Jskanaisnansnjs,

I see from your post that you’re seeing the screen of your new iPhone XS Max flicker when you go to switch apps. A great place to start when troubleshooting is to restart your iPhone following these steps: Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. If you’re still seeing flickering after restarting your iPhone, check to be sure that you have the latest updates installed on your iPhone. You can check by going to Settings > General > About > Software Update to see if it’s running iOS 12.1.3. If it’s not, up to date, be sure to backup the data on your iPhone. Having a backup of your data is like having an insurance policy, you don’t plan on using it, but it’s great to have if you need it. Here’s how to backup your iPhone: How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. If you find you need help updating the iPhone check out this article: Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.

Let us know the results.

Enjoy your day!
