Update to iOS 17.3: Check if you have the latest iOS 17.1 or higher update installed. If not, update your phone and see if the issue is resolved.


This can occur when static images are displayed for extended periods, causing certain pixels to degrade unevenly.

  • iOS 17.1 Fixes an issue that may cause display image persistence.


Observe if the burn-in fades or disappears over time with normal usage patterns. Some burn-in can be temporary and might improve with regular usage.
