Animation of the lock screen is not smooth with external images

Hi everyone,


I'm currently using the iPhone 14 Pro Max and have noticed that when the lock screen animation loads with images that aren't from Apples default collection, it is not a smooth transition from a black screen to the lock screen. This is with always on display off.


I have posted three examples of imgur:

Is anyone experiencing this issue as well or know what might be causing this?


Cheers!

iPhone 14 Pro Max, iOS 16

Hello feeblePenguin,


To help troubleshoot the behavior, ensure iOS is updated to iOS 16.0.2 and test after restarting your iPhone:


Restart your iPhone - Apple Support


  1. "Press and hold either volume button and the side button until the power-off slider appears.
  2. Drag the slider, then wait 30 seconds for your device to turn off. If your device is frozen or unresponsive, force restart your device.
  3. To turn your device back on, press and hold the side button (on the right side of your iPhone) until you see the Apple logo"


If the issue persists, reach out to Apple Support directly:


Contact Apple for support and service - Apple Support


Kind regards.
