Hi GeorgeTsekouras,


The Lock Screen widgets have a transparency to reveal the wallpaper. It can be more noticeable when the font color is much lighter than the background.


  • Is it possible the color is shifting with a dynamic wallpaper?
  • Is the other text on your Lock Screen also changing color?


Test by choosing a darker color for the font with these instructions:

Change the clock style on the Lock Screen
You can change the font and color of the date and time on your Lock Screen.
1. Touch and hold the Lock Screen until the Customize button appears at the bottom of the screen.
2. Swipe to go to the Lock Screen you want to change, tap Customize, then tap the Lock Screen image.
3. Tap the time, then choose a font and color.
