Invert Problems ios15

Hello!


Updated my iphone xr to ios15. Have two major problems. The status bar font color is acting up. Had to use dark mode to make it visible. And when i take screenshots the images are inverted.


Turned off invert off in the accessibility settings. It doesn’t solve these problems.


Help!


thanks

iPhone XR

I've had this same issue after installing ios 15.0.2 on my iPhone 11 pro.

Called Apple support but they were not able to offer a solution.

In-store staff advised me to reset all my settings (no memory wipe) and that did the trick for me!

I did not have Home Screen under Per-App Settings but sure enough when I added it, the setting for smart invert was already on.

Hello Tano22,


We see you're having some issues with the status bar, and the colors of screenshots being inverted. We'd be happy to help out there.


We would first recommend updating to today's new iOS version, which is iOS 15.0.2: Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


What seems to happen to the font color in the status bar? Does it switch to a particular color each time? Does the color issue seem to happen when launching a particular app or feature?

We noted you turned off one of the invert accessibility features, be sure to check for any else that may be on in Settings > Accessibility > Display & Text Size, including Color Filters.


It may also help to try restarting the device when odd issues come up: Restart your iPhone



Take care.
