If the screen of your iPhone 13 turns pink, don’t worry, it has a solution

Despite the fact that Apple is famous for launching well-rounded and error-free products, today no one is exempt from suffering failures, whether they are software or hardware. So if your iPhone 13 screen turns pink, don’t panic, it’s normal.

The iPhone 13 have been liked, both by the press and the public. We ourselves are the best example of this, as you can see both in our written analysis and in the video review that accompanies it.

But, since they are not perfect, the new Apple models have come out with the odd flaw. Being today the protagonist a bug that transforms the iPhone 13 screen into a pink box. Totally pink.

Is problem was first reported in October, when an iPhone 13 Pro user posted in an Apple forum thread that their two-day-old phone was unusable, with its screen turning pink for a few seconds before resetting.

Apple replaced that device, but since then there have been numerous similar reports on the web, and not all users have been lucky enough to get a free replacement phone.

In some cases the entire screen turns pink, while in others the status bar icons remain white. In some cases the problem is repeated or continuous, in others it has happened once or twice and the user’s phone seems to be fine.

But nevertheless, the issue appears to be limited to iPhone 13, iPhone 13 Pro, iPhone 13 Pro Max, and iPhone 13 mini, so the iPhone 12 and earlier have not been affected.

It is not clear how widespread this problem is, but in MyDrivers have published a possible solution, which -apparently- comes from Apple’s customer service.

According to the Apple SAT, it is a software problem and not a hardware one, which would explain why in some cases the status bar icons do not change color. And, if it’s a software issue, that means Apple can fix the glitch via an iOS update.

For now, however, the company advises backing up your data and updating to the latest version of iOS. From the post translated by MyDrivers, it is not entirely clear whether Apple is referring to the latest released version (iOS 15.2), or the beta version (iOS 15.3).

But we would recommend starting with iOS 15.2 if you don’t already have it, which is the stable version, and only then consider iOS 15.3 if the problem continues, as being a beta software it could itself be unstable.

Just in case, there is no official mention of this bug fix in either version of the software, but so far there is no release note for iOS 15.3, even though the software presumably includes some new features or bug fixes.
