Apple released watchOS 9.5 last week, alongside iOS 16.5, iPadOS 16.5, macOS Ventura 13.4, and tvOS 16.5 updates. Days after its release, some s are complaining that their Apple Watch display shows a green tint on parts of the interface. Apple Watch units with OLED displays appear to have been affected including the Apple Watch Series 8 and older models. While it is currently unclear what is causing the issue, Apple has resolved screen tint bugs on iPhone models in the past.

Images of the issue shared by s show a greenish tint on the notification and the Control Centre. According to these s, the new shade shows up after the watchOS 9.5 update that rolled out to s last week.
