iPhone 14 Pro users report flashing horizontal lines when turning on

The conversation appeared on social networks. In yesterday’s session, many users view reported weird horizontal flashes on smartphone screens during boot up. This issue seems to occur on iPhone 14 Pro and also iPhone 14 Pro Max. The worst part of this problem is that users don’t know why it is happening. Nor does anyone know how to solve this alleged problem.

Everything seems to point to the iOS 16 update

There have been many users on Reddit screaming to heaven with this issue. Most of the reported issues are related to the iPhone 14 series in its many versions. All of them complain that when you turn on the mobile one or more green and yellowish lines appear on the horizon of the screen and it flickers. However, these lines are not permanent. They disappear automatically when the smartphone is fully turned on.. They appear only a few seconds before the device starts. This is a snapshot of what was uploaded, proving the opposite:

Some users have already reported this issue to Apple support team. According to them, their support team has confirmed the issue. Again, reassured users that the horizontal lines on their iPhone 14 have nothing to do with hardware. Apple support says it’s a software issue. In fact, they determined that this is a bug in iOS 16.

Apple is already working to fix the bug

Other users have also confirmed that they first saw the issue when updating to iOS 16.2. On Reddit, Apple support forums, and other Apple-related forums, some users have also confirmed that the issue arose earlier. According to them, Horizontal lines appeared after updating to iOS 16.

A user who claimed to have spoken to one of the Apple engineers said: the company is working on a patch to fix the iPhone 14 issue. However, there are no details about this patch. Apple is currently testing iOS 16.3 with developers and public beta testers. But iOS 16.3 won’t be available until early next year. So, two options pop up: either Apple releases a patch to fix this, or users have to wait until iOS 16.3 is finally available.
