iOS 13 faded wallpaper issue

Hi Ybm_29,

Welcome to Apple Support Communities. I understand that the wallpaper on the Home screen appears to be desaturated or faded. I can help point you in the right direction.

I recommend to review the settings for your display to see if there's any adjustments that can be made. Here are two helpful articles with additional details and guidance: Adjust the display and text size on iPhone and Use Display & Text Size preferences on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch

Kind regards.

Same happening to me under iOS 13.3. It seems pretty common if you have a look at google. The only way to fix it for me is rebooting the phone. That way I get the wallpaper back to its original color. Nothing related to the dark mode either as I was expecting. Big bug that Apple should take care of.

best,

I know you can fix it by changing your display setting to zoom or normal(opposite of what it’s on currently), then change it back and that fixes it, but besides that, is there any other fixes?

I tried restarting but it does not fix it for me. Are there any other known fixes for this? Running iOS 13.3 on an iPhone 11 Pro Max.

There's no way to fix this at this time.

I even contacted Apple and we created a case. But still the issue persists.

I have contacted support and they told me that this bug is on the list to be resolved in the upcoming updates. Apple knows about this bug.

Hope so, been reporting this bug since the initial betas of iOS 13! Been putting it off for forever I feel like.
