Thanks for reaching out, Farhan_ch.


It sounds like you've noticed a few issues involving third-party apps following an update. We can help.


The first thing you'll want to try is to Restart your iPhone as this can clear many intermittent issues.


You'll also want to make sure all the third-party apps are updated as well, so you're not running into compatibility issues now that you're on iOS 16: How to manually update apps on your Apple device.


Give those steps a try and see if there is any improvement.


Take care.

Farhan_ch,


Thanks for the reply. To double-check, have you looked at the settings for each of the apps yet? Some apps have their own settings for dark and light modes.


Also, under Settings > Display & Brightness, we recommend checking a few settings to see if they could be a factor. Is True Tone on? Also, do you have the "Appearance" set to automatic, or is it set to Light mode? Adjust the screen brightness and color on iPhone - Apple Support


Let us know! Take care.
