iPhone displays have been designed, tested, and manufactured for Apple quality and performance standards. This includes intuitive and responsive Multi-Touch, high brightness, great color accuracy, white balance, and performance for features like True Tone, Night Shift, and Haptic Touch.
Importance of service by trained technicians using genuine Apple displays
If you need to replace your iPhone display, it's important for a trained technician who uses genuine Apple display parts to repair it.
For most customers, visiting a professional repair provider with certified technicians who use genuine Apple parts is the safest and most reliable way to get a repair. These providers include Apple and Apple Authorized Service Providers, and Independent Repair Providers, who have access to genuine Apple parts.* Repairs performed by untrained individuals using nongenuine parts might affect the safety of the device or functionality of the display. Apple displays are designed to fit precisely within the device.
Additionally, repairs that don't properly replace screws or cowlings might leave behind loose parts that could damage the battery, cause overheating, or result in injury.
Depending on your location, you can get your iPhone display replaced—in or out of warranty—by visiting an Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider, or by shipping your iPhone to an Apple Repair Center. Genuine Apple parts are also available for out-of-warranty repairs from Independent Repair Providers or through Self Service Repair.*
➢ Get started with display service.
The iPhone display is engineered together with iOS software for optimal performance and quality. A nongenuine display might cause compatibility or performance issues. For example, an issue might arise after an iOS software update that contains display updates.
If a service provider uses nongenuine display parts, the following might also occur:
Multi-Touch issues
Display brightness and color issues
* Independent Repair Providers have access to genuine Apple parts, tools, training, service guides, diagnostics, and resources. Repairs by Independent Repair Providers are not covered by Apple's warranty or AppleCare plans, but might be covered by the provider's own repair warranty. Self Service Repair provides access to genuine Apple parts, tools, and repair manuals so that customers experienced with the complexities of repairing electronic devices can perform their own out-of-warranty repair. Self Service Repair is currently available in the United States for iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 models and iPhone SE (3rd generation).
Parts and service history
With iPhone 11 models and later, excluding iPhone SE (2nd and 3rd generation), using iOS 15.2 and later, you can go to Settings > General > About for the parts and service history of your iPhone. You can also find out if the display has been replaced. If the repair was done using genuine Apple parts and processes, "Genuine Apple Part" will appear next to Display.
An Unknown Part ⚠️ message will appear if the display installation is incomplete or if the display:
An additional message might appear that says "Apple has updated the device information for this iPhone." This means that Apple has updated the device information maintained for this iPhone for service needs, safety analysis, and to improve future products.
These messages don't affect your ability to use your iPhone.

Did you have it repaired by Apple or one of their ay
repair facilities? If so, contact Apple if you are continuing to have an issue after the repair. If you had it done at a 3rd party repair facility then you need to contact them and see what your options are if any. Unfortunately, if you had an unauthorized repair Apple won’t touch the phone in all likelihood.
I cracked my screen so I had it professionally replaced, they couldn’t have put a smaller screen on my iPhone 11 right? It only fits if it’s current size screen it already had right?
