Some iPhone users report brief, greenish tint after unlocking handsets

There might be a greenish error in the wind some iPhone owners are concerned.

A small number of iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro users, as well as users of certain older model handsets, have reported a bug that causes a green tint to appear for a brief time after unlocking their handsets.

The issue apparently primarily affects devices in the iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro lineup, though it may also be present on some iPhone X and XS models. Some reports indicate that the issue has been present since iOS 13.4.1.

The bug apparently causes the display to appear “washed out with a green tint” fora few seconds before behaving normally again.

The issue appears to impact both iPhones with LCD and OLED screens, indicating that the problem is probably software-related.

If the issue is software-based, then it’s likely that Apple will patch the bug in an upcoming iOS release.
