How do I fix flickering widgets on iPhone 13?

For a while now (several updates) my widgets have been flickering. When I say flickering, they look like a bright strobe light, flashing bright white. Fortunately I’m not affected by flashing lights but if someone was this would be very disturbing for them. I can see that it’s not just me experiencing this and I have tried all the suggestions such as removing and reinstalling the widgets, resetting the Home Screen, restarting the phone, and none have worked. I have an iPhone 13 running iOS 18.3.2 so is it just a case that Apple have done something to encourage me to update to the latest iPhone, or is that me being cynical and grumpy!

Purchase Apple Products from the Apple Online Store, Apple Retail Stores, and many Apple-authorized resellers and wireless service providers.



Expressing or conveying visual experiences effectively through these forums may be challenging. The underlying visual issue on your iPhone cannot be accurately diagnosed online. Factors such as your iPhone's specific settings, visual defects, and potential hardware problems cannot be assessed through this method. For more personalized and in-depth assistance, I recommend securing a Genius Bar Reservation and exploring the various support options provided by Apple.

When you encounter issues with your Apple devices, the Genius Bar at Apple Retail Stores is the go-to place for expert assistance. The Genius Bar is staffed by knowledgeable Apple employees, often referred to as "Geniuses," who can diagnose and resolve a wide range of hardware and software-related problems. To ensure personalized attention and a convenient visit, Apple provides the option to schedule a Genius Bar Reservation.


Contact Genius Bar.
