Why is my iPhone 16 Pro Max flickering while using certain apps?

I face flickering issues on the iPhone 16 Pro Max in various apps like LinkedIn, Instagram, CapCut, and WhatsApp. On LinkedIn, every time I visit my profile page, the screen flickers multiple times (5 to 6) before it becomes stable. By flickering, I mean that there are pulses of screen refreshing. It also happens when I am scrolling the timeline randomly. On WhatsApp, the flickering appears at the bottom where you type the message to someone. Is anyone else facing such issues?


I have tried resetting all settings, force restarting, and uninstalling the app, but nothing has worked.


Here's the link to better understand what I mean by flickering here.


Can someone help?

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.
