On my i-phone 11 I changed my wallpaper and clock color, yet when I press "Done" the wallpaper stays the same, but the clock changes color where I can barely see it. Doesn't matter that I change it to black, once I select done, it changes to something almost invisible.
iPhone 11, iOS 16
When I turn my phone on my Lock Screen changes colour then goes back to the original colour after how do I stop that

Thank you Alancito! That method worked for me, although I thought it hadn't.
It didn't simply toggle to the new setting, as with many iPhone setting changes.
I needed to turn my phone off and on after I changed the setting before it showed on the screen.
No matter where I look, I do not have those buttons. Even my son looked and it's nowhere to be seen. Where else would it be?
Not sure if this will work, but here's a link to my screenshot.

Spence ~ It sounds like you haven't changed the default Opaque setting to Solid for the clock text. See:
Personalize your iPhone Lock Screen - Apple Support
Under the instructions there for Edit a Lock Screen, there's this:
"...Change the style of the time: Tap Customize, tap the time."
Then, at the bottom of the Lock Screen, tap on the right-hand circle to make the date & time a solid colour instead of opaque:

No it isn’t the screenshot I have the same issue. The color is trying to camouflage in the picture. It is changing from one half being beige and the other half being black.
Any suggestions on finding and fixing a bug, if that's the issue?
Spence ~ In your screenshot, the first button at lower left has a blue outline, signifying it is the currently selected 'color'. That particular button makes the clock text opaque – and thus the clock text color will change as the background changes.
The other buttons to the right, if you select one of them, make the clock text solid – and thus the clock text color will NOT change as the background changes.
...However, if that's not how it's working for you, perhaps you're hitting a bug in the software.
By the way, my screenshot has only two buttons because my wallpaper is Apple's new 'Live Weather':

I finally got it working. I had to power off my phone and restart before the fix took hold. Thanks for the help.
