Screen Burns

I have my phone since august 2022 and I‘ve been on tiktok for a few hours on a daily basis and I started noticing screen burns on the bottom and side of my phone such as the time and battery,wifi, and data bar being burnt in. I‘ve been avoiding the app eversince I started noticing the burns and I‘ve been putting on those youtube videos for screen burns but nothing really helps much…

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 16

Hey there amirabrcz555,


Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities. If having issues with “image persistence” or “burn-in,” where the display shows a faint remnant of an image even after a new image appears on the screen, check out the information and steps in the following resource that can help: About the Super Retina display and Super Retina XDR display on your iPhone - Apple Support


Get the most out of the Super Retina and Super Retina XDR displays
With the latest version of iOS, your iPhone is specially designed to minimize the effects of long-term use and extend the viewing life of the Super Retina and Super Retina XDR displays. Here are some additional things you can do to get the most out of your Super Retina or Super Retina XDR display:
- Update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS. When a new update is available, you'll see a prompt to update. You can also check for updates in Settings > General > Software Update.
- Use Auto-Brightness to automatically adjust the brightness of your display based on the ambient light in your location. This setting is on by default. To check this setting, go to Settings > Accessibility > Display & Text Size, then scroll down and turn on Auto-Brightness.
- Set your iPhone to turn off the display when you aren’t using it. Choosing a shorter time is recommended. To adjust this setting, go to Settings > Display & Brightness > Auto Lock.
- Avoid displaying static images at maximum brightness for long periods of time. If you have an app that keeps your display on when you aren’t actively using your iPhone, you can temporarily reduce the brightness level using Control Center.


We hope that's able to help.


Have a great day!
