Guys and Girls,
My recent problem is that since I've upgraded my iPhone 11 to iOS 16.3 I can't get it out of "Dark" mode. I reboot and it's ok until I enter my first app and then it goes dark again.
Any ideas?

Axel,
Ok, I followed the instructions twice and waited more than 2 minutes each time. I never got the Apple logo but the problem is solved and I'm out of the dark mode. What ever you suggested seemed to work.
Thank you very much for your help.

Try and Force Restart your iPhone EXACTLY as shown below and see whether that resolves the issue:

The Force Restarting procedure is most often not executed correctly. Please read the instructions carefully and try again. NOTE that there are no two buttons that are pressed simultaneously.
If the above does not work then can you tell me how far do you get in the procedure?

That Battery Health Maximum Capacity at 77% is a huge contributor to a malfunctioning iPhone. If your battery's Maximum Capacity shows a value of 80% or less, then it has gone through its lifecycle and therefore should be replaced, according to Apple.

Axel,
You talked me into it. I just ordered an iPhone 14 Plus from T-Mobil. I deserve it! I bought Apple stock a few years ago at a cost index of $1.55. Apple doesn't owe me a thing. It's less trouble that replacing the battery. I watched the video to do it myself - no thanks.
Again, thanks for your help.
Love this forum.
Phil
Awesome! You are right that the battery is not designed to be self serviced. Did you trade in your iPhone 11 for the iPhone 14 Plus? If NOT then you can still get the battery replaced in your iPhone 11 for $69 at the Apple Store and keep it as a spare phone.

Double Check something in Settings.
Open Settings ➡️ Display & Brightness ➡️ Automatic: Ensure that this switch is set to OFF. Here, also ensure that Light Mode has been selected.

I've been playing with that and they are both selected as you suggest.
Thanks, Axel
Tried it and never got the Apple logo?
You are welcome. I am glad that you were able to resolve the issue.

Whoops - - Alex. Not so fast. It's back again after I used a few apps. My battery maximum level is down to 77%. Could that be putting the iPhone into a power saving type mode?

Hello ~ Great work as usual!

Thank You Katana-San!

Yep, traded it in and got $400 credit spread over the term. Made the phone a total of $500!
And of course the iPhone 11 is working perfectly now. 🤪
Phil
Great Job. Yep iPhone 11 is near perfect now. Ha!

iPhone "Dark" mode.
