Horizontal black line in photos app after updating 18.1

Using iphone 13.. After updating to 18.1, a thin black horizontal line appears in photos app when i open an image. It disappears but the line keeps on appearing inconsistently. This happens only in photos app alone. When exited everything works fine. This could not be captured in screenshot also.

iPhone 13

Same. I made update from 17.7.2 to 18.2.1 with iPhone 13 Pro. I receive this grey line in fotos only when scrolling thru mediathek after I viewed a picture. The line disappears after 10 seconds. No line when I scroll in the app e.g. in albums or persons. Talked with apple support. They know about this issue and currently working on a software solution. I´m surprised that this problem was not detected during beta testing.

Hello same problem I am facing in my 12 pro max. The photos app is displaying black horizontal line even when I scroll my photos inside the app. It stays for some moments and disappears. I have restarted using volume up down and power button method but no change. Even I have erased and reinstalled to factory settings but things don’t change. Pls fix this issue and also after updating to 18.1 the sound from the speakers have decreased and battery drain issues have been more.

Apple pls fix this bug specially for the customers who are not a part of your AI and are still happy with your older models.

Expecting a definite fix of these issues.

Yes!! I just bought this iphone off of EBay (IPhone 14) and thought it was because it was a refurbished product and was ready to send it back or something. It’s not a big deal but still bothers me. 😩 Hopefully it gets fixed soon! (It’s the line that looks like a pencil going through the words whole milk and continues clear across the screen.) it always disappears but comes back at the same place.


edit: I’m not sure how to turn the photo to see it better. 😭

iPhone 13Pro, при просмотре фото в галерее появляется черная горизонтальная линия, она не постоянная. При повороте экрана из вертикального в горизонтальное, полоса так же переворачивается. Устраните пожалуйста данную проблему!
