Smart Invert on iOS 16

Hi LasseJal,

Thanks for the clarifying information, as it is much appreciated.

We noticed that the above article also says:

If you benefit from viewing items against a dark background, you can use Invert Colors to change how content is displayed on your screen. 

To use Invert Colors, open the Settings app, then tap Accessibility > Display & Text Size. Turn on Smart Invert or Classic Invert.

Use display and text size preferences on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support

Do you already have Dark Mode enabled at Settings > Display & Brightness?

We're wondering if maybe that is interfering with the Smart Invert.

If so, does Smart Invert show correctly if you go back to Light Mode at Settings > Display & Brightness?

We'd advise to contact Apple Support, and let them know exactly what's happening, so they can look further into this behavior.

Hey there LasseJal,

The information and link below will help clarify the differences between the two invert options:

Smart Invert reverses the colors on the display, except for images, media, and some apps that use dark color styles.

Classic Invert reverses all colors on the display.

Take care!
