Background color on phone calls

I updated my iPhone to IOS 17.1.1 a few weeks ago, and since then, my background color when answering calls has changed to a dull grey color. It is not pleasant. At the same time, I only get small icons for callers, even though I have full screen set for incoming calls. What can I do to go back to the better screens options?

They grey background colour when I make a call . So ugly . Why have apple done this . I have a brand new phone . But I may take it back and get an android , . This colour is do depressing and spoils my phone .

Whenever my daughter calls me the background color is horrible. How do I change it?

Mine turned to this ugly brown! Help!!

This is something very different from before my last update. We need to know how to change from this dull greyish to a color we choose.

You can't. But, you can let Apple know you don't like it:

Read through the previous comments, the answer has already been given.

Why does only one of my callers have an ugly gold brown background?

To the best of my knowledge, you can't.

Isn’t there any response from Apple to give a way we can use better color as background dull grey for calls. Seems it was a change which took place after the latest update.

Apple doesn't participate here in this user-to-user forum. You can contact them directly using the Support link at the bottom left of every page of these forums.

When I receive a tel call it’s a grey background which it wasn’t before ? I have just had it in for repair ?

Yes, it changed with iOS 17.
