It is now all set to resolve the glitch with the release of iOS 16.3 update. Notably, iOS 16.3 is currently in the final stage of beta testing and will likely be released to the public next week. "iOS 16.3 fixes an issue where horizontal lines flash across the screen on some iPhone 14 Pro Max devices when powered on or unlocked, according to Apple's release notes for the software update, which is in the final stage of beta testing," a report by MacRumors stated.

It can be known that Apple on Wednesday, January 18 announced that the iOS 16.3 update will be made available. iOS 16. 3 will bring some new features and enhancements for the iPhone users.

The new Unity iPhone wallpaper for the Lock Screen will be also be available next week and requires iPhone 8 or later running iOS 16.3," Apple said in a press release.
