home screen displays two different dates/times

Recently i have noticed two dates and times displayed on my homescreen on my iphone11pro.

I have tried changing the date and time and not using auto update but that does not seem to work. I have also turned the phone off and on again but still will not clear. One date that displays if the current date and time and the other is one from my ipod touch from the last time it was used.

Is it possible that the date/time you are seeing is from the wallpaper you are using? Is it possible that you are using a screenshot that is containing the date/time? Go to Settings>Wallpaper, and try a new wallpaper on the home screen and see what happens.

Unfortunately, that is not a screenshot. That is a photograph of the screen. A screenshot would provide information about what the actual video feed is. I'm guessing that when you said "did not work", that you did change to a plain wallpaper and still experienced the ghosting? I'm still thinking this could be a wallpaper with the old date and time on it, since it shows an older date.

You're welcome. If that photo is something that appears in your camera roll, other than the screenshot that you created (that is the photo that also has your time/date in it, then you should be able to replace it. Otherwise, you can choose some other photo if you are not enjoying a plain non-photo wallpaper. I know we like to have a personal photo for our wallpaper.
