Smart Invert

I turn off smart invert and it keeps coming back on. For example if I have a software update or my phone is switched off and then turned back on, it keeps reverting back to smart invert. How to stop this from happening?

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 16

Well. I’ve been battling reversed colours since iOS 16 upgrade to. (12 pro max) Very annoying. Both classic and smart invert are disabled. But I can’t even start to describe how random this is. Finally fixed it tonight after a lot of digging.


head off to another one of apples famous hidden duplicate settings:


settings/accessibility/

per-app settings/Home Screen/ smart invert.


Disabled that and my life is back to normal.

I’ve never even been in there before so the 16 upgrade must have enabled it.


good luck !
