On social media, some iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max users are reporting horizontal lines flickering on the iPhone display when turned on, with no clear reason why or how to fix it.
In one Reddit thread, dozens of iPhone 14 Pro users are reporting that one or more green and yellow lines may flash on the screen before disappearing after a few seconds when the device turns on. According to the same users, Apple Support has informed them that the problem is not a hardware fault, but a bug in iOS 16.
According to users on Reddit, Apple Support forums (1,2,3) and MacRumors in the forum, the problem seems to have started after the iOS 16.2 update, although some users report that the problem also occurs on older versions of iOS 16. One user on Reddit claims that an Apple engineer told them by phone that Apple is working on a software fix for the problem, but the exact details are unknown.
Apple is currently testing iOS 16.3 with developers and public beta testers, but the update is not expected to launch until early next year. The latest version of iOS 16 is iOS 16.2, which included several new features, including Apple Music Sing, Apple’s new Freeform app, and more.
