iOS 12 Washed out color / colour

I just installed iOS12 on my iPhone X and upon reboot noticed that my screen seems kind of washed out - colours have lost their ‘pop’. I did some googling and people seem to think Apple may have changed the way backgrounds behave once applied, but is seems to me as though the entire OS now experiences washed out colours. I would really like my screen to look as good as it did before this update. It’s rather disappointing. I hope this is a software bug and not a permanent change...

SOLVED!!!


my issue has been completely resolved, screen is back to normal and beautiful again:


  1. Connect iphone to itunes
  2. Enter into recovery mode (see on youtube how to do it)
  3. Choose UPDATE (even if there is no updates for your iPhone)
  4. Once your phone will wake up from the process (itunes logo on screen will disappear, you phone will just enter standard operations, even without system re-instalation, you will have your screen back to normal!!!)


Worked like a charm!
