How do I get rid of the numbers on my iPhone 16 Pro Max screen?

I have gone into X accessibility and that didn’t help . I have numbers appearing on my screen. How do I get them off?

Hello,

Try these steps:

  1. Press and quickly release the volume up button.
  2. Press and quickly release the volume down button.
  3. Press and hold the side button until you see the Apple logo (could be as long as 30 seconds) 

The timing is a little critical, you may have to try it several times. See this for more detail:

If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won‘t turn on or is frozen

Good luck.
