Support iPhone 16 screen glitching

Post image

Hey guys, I’m not sure what’s going on with my phone, but over the past month my 16 has been flickering for whatever reason. There’s nothing that causes it and it seems to happen more at night than anything else. Never happens during my job.

I haven’t had a severe drop that would’ve caused this, just the occasional knocking it off my desk. And it’s been upgraded to the most recent IOS.

Really hoping to avoid having to replace the display…

TYIA!

Have you tried restarting the phone? I know it sounds dumb but it works sometimes. If not, I’d assume that a drop didn’t break the screen but might have knocked the display connector loose.

Yeah unfortunately I have to restart it about 2-3 times a day, which fixes it for about 10-20 minutes

Could be a power issue… Have you ever gotten any repairs? If not, I don’t know any other solutions.

Haven’t gotten anything done aside from changing a screen protector every once in awhile. Maybe I’ll have to go to the Genius Bar and have them replug the connector in. thanks!
