Every screen shot I take turns out super dark, like the brightness is turned all the way down or there's a dark grey filter over it. I can't figure out what's wrong, thought it was the ios14 update but my friend isn't having the same issue at all.
iPhone XS Max, iOS 14
I have the same thing. But I’ve been using the zoom function to dim my screen further.
I just turned off zoom and the screenshots come out as they should.
Maybe there is another option in the accessibility for this.
Sorry but it's not a solution, it's merely a "disable the feature you wanted to use and it will work again"
Where is the solution to allow using zoom with low light filter AND having screenshot taken with full light, the same as iOS 13 did.
AFAIK this is a regression from iOS 13 do ios 14
This is ridiculous. Requiring that we turn off an accessibility feature in order to use unrelated functionality on the phone is a terrible solution. Apple seems to break zoom on every update for me, so not surprising this is happening... but really disappointing.
This will fix the problem with regular screen shots but NOT when trying to take screenshots from a video recording. Changed all of the above and its still putting a gray filter over my video screen shots. Also all videos I try to post on Instagram, upload with this same gray filter and not the true version. Anyone have a solution?
Thanks Wasp624. It’s incredible what these developers think of.
I find it equally incredible that Apple actually need to make a forum like this one for people like me who think there’s something wrong with the iPhone, only to find out that there’s something to turn Off or On someplace illogic deep inside the Settings... Had I known, I would have had a "night phone" for over 2 years...
I find this really outrageous; here we are, on an Apple discussion site, customers having bought iPhones each worth way over a thousand $ and this specific problem has been discussed for months! For some the problem has been resolved, but others are still struggling with it.
AND THERE ARE NOBODY FROM APPLE TO GIVE ANY STRAIGHTFORWARD ANSWERS!
How many other topics are being discussed right now with the same outcome,
What are they doing at Apple? Probably
laughing their heads off saying: 'Let them figure it out between themselves, what do we care, it doesn’t cost us a cent anyway...’
Or you could pay even more big bucks for Apple Care and waste your time sitting in a telephone queue and still not get the right answer (now I’m being mean... or am I?).
The iPhones are great phones, but my oh my, you don’t want one of them to act up on you.
Have a lovely Christmas everyone!
Amen!!! You’re getting me fired up again on this. $1200 for my brand new iPhone 12. It’s a month old. I’ve scoured the web and tried every suggestion posted here and then some. An acquaintance who works for Apple (I reached out to her on Instagram mind you) told me to go to the Apple store to resolve it. Have u seen the lines at Apple lately? Still debating if I should stand there and wait. It’s probably a quick fix which really chaps my ***.
Incredible, isn’t it? That this issue has been going on since September 17th....
It goes to show that nobody from Apple gives a flying rat’s a...plle 🍏 (I’m just being provocative to see if anyone is surveying this page).
Happy New Year!
My screenshots are all dark. Why?
Thanks, that really helped!
You’re Welcome!
