Clock missing from lock screen after iOS 11 update

After updating to iOS 11, I can no longer see my clock on the lock screen. I have to unlock the phone to see what time it is. Super annoying. Has anyone else had this issue? Is there a quick and easy fix?

That worked for me too....not sure if anyone else noticed this or not but this bug also effects your use of the control center function when your screen is locked. I sometimes swipe up to use my camera quickly when the screen was locked and that function didn't work either. Changing it to zoomed has worked. I haven't change it back to standard yet to just test out how long it lasts before moving back to standard view.

I’m still getting a clock, but no notifications on iPhone 7 11.0.2. By the way, my iPad Pro is running on 10.3.3 and I am not changing it for anything until they get this fixed. It seems like we all have different symptoms. No wonder Apple is having trouble fixing this. Perhaps they should enlist a bunch of us to be part of their troubleshooting and testing effort. Apple, are you listening? I’m a retired tech. Lots of time on my hands. 😜

Hi, even I'm facing the same issue which is so irritating.

These are the issues after updating to iOS 11

1. Clock and notifications disappears from the lock screen.

2. Camera doesn't open when swiped to left on the lock screen.

3. Screen light flashes whenever there is a notification but it doesn't popup on the screen or in the notification bar.

4. When swiped down on the lock screen to open the notification panel it is blank screen.

I have tried all possible options restarting, zoom view, and all others that are mentioned here and other forums but nothing works for permanent.

Is anyone else facing these issues? Did anyone found the permanent fix ?

Did you find any solution? I visited to Apple store for almost 6 times now, even they were clueless, they suggested me to restart, hard reset, DFU reset and later they swapped my phone but still the same issue. They even blamed me saying my backups or apps are corrupted which was silly.


This is getting even more worse now 😟, if they don't come up with the fix asap, they will start loosing their customers
