This has been a problem for me too. The only “fix” I came up with was photoshopping the background of my wallpaper and resizing to fit the screen (without cropping), that way my iPhone won’t have to blur the upper part. It’s a hassle but it works
Apple
A place for Apple news, rumors, and discussions.
You will need to ask Disney for that!
Like the dead guy? Or the corporation? And for what exactly?
Push the long button on the right side of the screen
use a marker
there is, get an android android is better
We probably have the same wallpaper lol
Have you tried restarting your phone?
There was an option under display settings but I guess it got removed with iOS 16/17+
This option would make the text react to lighter wallpaper so it would make the font dark.
It does it automatically, but the algorithm isn't nearly as sensitive as it should.
Ugh, I miss the darkening of wallpapers so much. It really made the icons pop. No idea why they would get rid of that feature.

I have white background wallpaper too and my wifi and airplane mode icon are black. Probably a bug
I’ve seen it change with the live weather background. I’m thinking it takes an average color of the whole picture and uses that to decide?Instead of you know, using the immediate area at the top.
It is automatic, at least for me it changes depending on the colours
This seems to happen in instances where the background is bright at the top but darker at the bottom. The algorithm prioritizes the darker shades.
In the past iOS used to flip the fonts to dark grey (almost black) when you used a light wallpaper, nowadays it just puts a shadow behind app icon text and calls it a day, they forgot about the notification bar indicators completely.
I love iOS and Apple and they usually have great attention to detail but sometimes they miss things like this which are baffling.
Dark theme
Nope. The only way that I have seen around it is editing the wallpaper to make the top graduate to dark. Or just change the wallpaper. Unfortunate oversight from iOS 😔
Edit the photo and make it a bit darker
Sang it like “take a sad song and make it better”
Would setting increase contrast in accessibility work? I have a dark background so not easy for me to check.
Is it part of the extended wallpaper?
Can you share the full wallpaper, just curious to know is there any special you have set this to wallpaper?
What about this?
my blue sky just went like this.
