iOS
11 has been reported with many troubles out of which one is related to clock on
lock screen. After upgrading the iphone to iOS 11 the clock from lock screen
just disappeared. Even if you try to reboot your phone, it may appear after
that but after sometime it would disappear again. You may try to Hard reset your
iphone by: Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and
continue holding them down until the Apple appears.
It
is not only that your clock is missing from the lock screen but also it may
cause other issues like none of notifications are coming through. iphone lights
up like a notification has been received but my lock screen is blank except for
my wallpaper.
There
is no information visible on lock screen except status bar. Phone is still
working but nothing is visible except the wallpaper. I'm able to swipe to both
sided and launch camera/take picture for example but all I see is wallpaper.
How to fix the clock disappeared issue on lock screen in your
iphone:
Solution 1:
Actually
its more like a workaround, When clock disappeared, just swiped top down on lock
screen and the clock reappeared.
Or
Solution 2: Other possible workaround is to change the fonts to bold and
then back to normal the problem should disappears. Please check now.
Solution 3: Turn off
live photos
The
issue is reported majorly from the devices where 'live' photo is set as
background. Please try to turn off this feature and check again the same issue
with a blank lock screen. The issue should not appear after this.
If still not working Try to reset your iphone
You can use either iCloud or iTunes to back up your iOS device. For iCloud go to Settings > iCloud > Backup and ensure that the feature is enabled. To see when the last backup was run look under the Back Up Now option where the date and time should be displayed. If you haven't done a backup before you can tap the Back Up Now button and follow the instructions
What about
Permanent fix:
While
we contacted Apple regarding the lock screen issue iphone and they said that
they are aware of the bug and the only solution right now until the next update
fixes the situation is to revert to iOS 10.3.3
