Run-ins with your iPhone can be a real pain when you don’t have an error code or other visual clues to help you figure out what’s going wrong. When people use their iPhones, they often run into a problem called a “white iPhone screen.” A blank white screen is likely to show up on your iPhone when you have this problem. There are no options to get out of this screen, so you can’t get out of this screen. If you have this problem, we’ll talk about how to fix it in this post.
The iPhone’s white screen is caused by what?
For most people, there are two main reasons why their iPhones get stuck with a white screen. These two reasons are:
- Many times, a white screen is caused by a problem with software that needs to be fixed. This is sometimes seen after the OS has been updated. There are no clues as to what went wrong during or after a software upgrade.
- If there is a hardware problem, this could also be the reason. This could be a loose cable inside your phone, water damage, a broken screen, or other hardware problems.
Here are Four Ways to Fix an iPhone White Screen

When you want to do a Hard Reset, you don’t need any software from a third party. You can do it by pressing the hardware buttons on your phone.

When you use the Tenorshare ReiBoot software, getting into recovery mode is even easier. The software comes with a free one-click solution that makes it easy to put your iPhone into recovery mode.
To get into recovery mode without having to use ReiBoot, follow these steps:
Step 1: On a Mac with macOS Catalina, go to Finder and click on the File menu. It doesn’t matter if you’re on a Mac with macOS Mojave or a PC with iTunes. In this case, close iTunes, then open it again. Keep your phone or tablet connected and wait until the recovery mode screen comes up:
Step 2: If you have an iPhone 8 or later, as well as the iPhone SE (2nd generation), this is the next step. Press and quickly let go of the volume up button on your TV. As soon as you hit and release the volume down button, quickly release it again. You then have to press and hold the side button until you get to the recovery mode screen.

The iPhone 7, the iPhone 7 Plus, and the iPod touch (7th generation) are all the same. Press and hold both the top (or side) and the volume down buttons at the same time to turn down the volume on your phone.

Step 3 – When you see the option to Restore or Update, choose Update. Your computer will try to reinstall the software again without deleting your data, but it won’t work very well at first. Wait for your computer to download the software for your device while you do other things. As soon as the download is done, let it finish. Then, go back to step 3 and start all over again.

After the Update or Restore is done, you can set up your device.
