White Screen on iPhone after iOS 16.6 Update

All of a sudden my screen started flickering and now the screen is stuck with white screen. Is anyone facing the same. I see lot of similar display issues raised by people after software updates.

Just for the update to everyone replied here. Thank God! I got my screen replaced without any cost.

I had the extended warranty from the shop where I bought phone(SharfDG Dubai) and got it replaced without any hassle.


On this post I see more than 200 people raising same concern and apple is not responding positively. When Oneplus had similar kind of issue with display, they fixed it without charging any cost from users. As a premium brand atleast apple should acknowledge this issue.

I was about to update my 13 pro to 16.6. But hearing the issues related the update, I contacted with Apple team, the response was strange and disappointing. They are telling they even don’t know this issue till now , and also added that nobody reported similar kind of issues to them yet. I have lots of contacts who had similar issues which have been reported to Apple. But how come Apple lying to their users? Atleast if they google it they will find n number of cases connected with it. This is clear piece of cheating to users. Atleast they should start enquiring why it’s happening for a particular series of Apple? Lots of users already been switched their phone to android.

for me I am in a fix to make a decision for my 16.6 update, at least if iPhone given assurance, I can go for it, but still they don’t , instead they are telling to check condition of my phone from apple service Center spending 1800rupeea from my poket!! What an idea !! Never go for iPhone, this may repeat for other fone with similar upcoming updates too, that is our doubt!!!

My screen turned white after the new update of ios16.6 and after service the icare until tells me they have updated the software and now within 24 hours the same issue comes up and the I care until tells me the display of the phone is gone

and the apple customer care service tells me that they cannot do anything about their consumers issues

they have the audacity to tell me that go file a complaint in the consumer court.

and now they expect me to pay them ₹28000 just to get the display changed for a fault that’s happening from their end and apple simply doesn’t want to take any action for their customers

they happily charge their prices when it comes to selling and when it comes to any after service it’s just pathetic and no good response given at all

the only thing they say is ur device is out of warranty period and we will have to pay for their faulty IOS 16.6

worst of the responses against their consumers
