Blurry top-left corner obscuring time on iPhone 13 mini

It would appear this is a device bug? I can see the quick fix is to switch from light to dark modes. However, this bug appears to come back after some amount of time. This is unacceptable. This device will be returned if a permanent fix is not identified.

Wallpaper disappears After the upgrade to ios 16.1.1 (20B101) wallpaper has started disappearing; my iphone 11 just shows black screen with all tiles for apps. Same is true for library screen too. Restart phone, original wallpaper temporarily appears, and within minutes disappears leaving dark background settings - wallpaper seems to indicate current wallpaper as the correct one, however it is not showing on the real screen (vs implied settings) from time to time, especially on calls, screen turns black and nothing can be done to retrieve the phone ui or see numbers or call info; it is as if phone is locked with a call ongoing in the background. I sincerely hope that Apple is not forcing us to ditch iphone 11 and upgrade to a newer one.

iPhone 14 Pro Max Horizontal Lines Across Screen When Phone Wakes Up Hi there, I got brand new iPhone and I noticed that when the phone wakes up, horizontal lines flash on the screen. It doesn't happen everytime, just randomly. But it occurs more often when you watch video before your screen turns off. I don't remember I saw those lines before iOS 16.2 but I have that phone just for 2 weeks. I visited a reddit forum and 4 people said they have the same issue which means (hopefully) it should not be a hardware issue. But I need to know more. Could you please help?

Hi daJabberwocky,

Does this problem persist through a restart? Also, is it only in specific apps? If so, which one(s)?

Additionally, confirm if your iPhone has any updates. If it does, take a moment to backup and install them.

Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Let us know if the issue persists.

Cheers!
