Problem viewing lock screen after iOS update 12/7/2025
iphone 13
after Sunday’s iOS update, I can’t see the clear bubbles to input my lock code. How do I change it’s appearance?
iPhone 13, iOS 26
Liquid Glass:
There are two settings you can change to reduce the liquid glass effects:
Settings ≥ Accessibility > Display & Text Size > Reduce Transparency > ON
--------
If you have recently updated to iOS 26.1 (not to be confused with 26.0.1)
there is additional relief available, but it is not obvious:
Settings > Display & Brightness > Liquid Glass.
Here, you'll find two options: Clear and Tinted.
'Tinted' further reduces the translucency of the glass effect, making it not very glass-like any more.
