My phone 11 screen to white from black background

I have an I phone 11 but the screen suddenly changed from white to black for no reason. I can’t change it back to a white background. Do you know how?

iPhone SE, iOS 13

Hello there!


I think you mean the light and dark mode?

You can change that via settings!


1) Open settings

2) Go to screen and brightness

3) On the top, you should see the 'light' and 'dark' mode, select the option you want.


If you didn't mean this, than to change a background on your iPhone 11 with the newest software:


1) Go to the lockscreen

2) Tap and hold anywhere on the screen

3) The menu should appear, follow the onscreen steps



Hope it helps!
