iOS 11.1 Screen issues while on a call

I have an iPhone 7 Plus. When I am on a call and I try to open another applicaiton (e.g. messgaes, mail, maps), half the screen is black. This happens both in portrait and landscape mode. It also happens when the display zoom is set to either standard or zoomed. I've reset and power cycled the phone. I've closed all the back ground apps etc.


Any ideas before I downgrade back to 11.0.1?

Discussing this in another thread. I am seeing this also on my 6S, you on your 7Plus and the other gentleman on his 8Plus. I would say this is across the board. I can't believe that this is limited to just us 3 testers. :-)

Your not the only one.... mine does the same thing. Had to believe they missed such a big issue.

Be sure to file bugs against the 11.1 beta in that case.

I found the fix. Settings. Accessibility. Turn off REDUCE MOTION. You can thank me later .

Thanks, I had tried that as I usually have this turned on (to reduce motion) but it didn't help. Now toggling it off yet again and testing a call it seems to have resolved it. Weird. Thanks again. There's probably not a lot of folks that "reduce motion". I had already reported the bug the evening of day-1 release.

Great , it works fine at my Iphone 6+ , Thanks !

Yeah took me a while to figured out lol. It was by mistake actually. I restored my iPhone and without restoring from backup I updated again. Made a phone call and realized the bug had disappeared. That’s how I figured it out lol. Annoying as heck.

Consider yourself thanked! 🙂

I have the same issue. It started right after my update to 11. I have 7plus as well.

Makes you mad when you do all that work wiping and restoring and then find out it was a simple fix. No doubt though, they have some work to do and now makes sense why they overlooked it since I think "reduce motion" just isn't something many people do. I've just never cared for the parallax wallpaper and home screen transition animation. Let's see if they get it fixed for B2. For now we can live with "Increased Motion" I guess. :-)

Well it's ok because now after the restore and running 11.1 beta 1. My phone feels a lot shooter and faster for sure. I haven't restore my phone since like 10.0. So it definitely needed. Specially after doing so many OTA updates. And in the other hand. I saved you guys the time! And everyone else that googles the issue. And yes hopefully it's fixed in BETA 2. Because I don't like that parallax effect lol

thank you! it worked for me on my 7 plus

Same problem. Turning off the motion worked.

thanks a lot. it really works!
