Almost a month after users flagged iPhone 14 Pro display glitch, Apple says working on fix

iPhone 14 Pro or an iPhone 14 Pro Max user? You must have heard that several iPhone 14 Pro users were earlier reporting about the green and yellow horizontal lines seen on the phone's display. Have you noticed the same? According to a latest report by MacRumors. Apple has acknowledged the issue of horizontal lines flashing on iPhone 14 Pro Max. "Apple has acknowledged that iPhone 14 Pro Max users may see flashing horizontal lines on their display when the device is being turned on," the report said.

The report further informed that in a new memo, Apple has acknowledged the issue and put at ease concerns it stems from a hardware defect, confirming it's being investigated and an iOS update to address it will be released soon. iPhone 14 Pro customers may "report that when they power on or unlock their phone, they briefly see horizontal lines flash across the screen," the memo seen by MacRumors says.

"Apple is aware of the issue and a software update is coming soon that will resolve the issue," the memo adds.

Earlier, many iPhone 14 Pro users took to Reddit and Apple's community forums to complain about the strange bug that is creating green and yellow lines that are flashing across their screens.

“I just got the iPhone 14 Pro Max this past Friday(12/9/22). I noticed that when the phone wakes up, horizontal lines flash on the screen. It does that randomly, not every time the phone wakes up. Sometimes it’s just 1 line, sometimes it’s multiple,” one of the Reddit users shared on the platform.

While another user writes, “The most funny thing about this all is I've started using AOD (always on display) to avoid that flickering issue when waking phone up and my AOD is not working... Every single time display goes full black after 5-10 minutes :D ... Well I am not even angry at this point. There are so many issues I can't count them.”

A couple of users also claimed that the problem appeared after installing the latest iOS 16. 2 updates on the iPhones, while others say that the issue was there even on the older version of iOS 16.
