Apple’s Secret Defect? The Truth About iphone white spot on screen

[StormyHuda]

I just noticed a mysterious iphone white spot on screen that appeared out of nowhere. Is this a common manufacturing flaw that Apple is refusing to acknowledge, or did I actually damage the LCD? If you've had this happen, did the "pressure" trick work or is a full screen replacement the only fix?

That usually happens when the battery starts to swell and pushes against the back of the screen so you should check if the screen is lifting at all.

It is a secret bonus feature to help you find your phone in the dark so you should be thanking them for the free upgrade.

The pressure trick usually makes it worse by damaging the layers of the display panel so a full screen replacement is the only real solution for this.

Just put a sticker over it and pretend it never happened because that is how I fixed the check engine light in my car.

There is no way it just appeared out of nowhere you probably sat on it or it got squeezed too hard in your pocket.

I had this on my old phone and the apple store actually replaced it for free because it was a known issue with the battery expanding.

The screen is toasted so just get it replaced before the whole thing turns black.

Apple quality is honestly going downhill every year and they will definitely try to blame you for it if you take it in.

Nothing lasts forever especially not expensive glass rectangles we carry in our pockets all day and night.

Yeah mine has had that for a year now and it has not gotten any bigger so I just leave it alone and got used to it.
