Blue screen and overall blue tint.

My iPad 4 has changed to a blue background and a blue tint overall. How do I fix this??

Your description refers to an iPad4, whereas the tags appended to your post suggest that you have an iPad mini4. These models of iPad are significantly different both in screen hardware and the version of iOS/iPadOS that is likely to be installed - and therefore the capabilities of the iPad.


  • iPad4 - iOS 10.3.3
  • iPad mini4 - iPadOS 15.3


If you have an iPad mini4, ensure that it has been updated to the most recent version of iPadOS (i.e., iPadOS 15.3) - then check your Display & Brightness settings - in particular your True Tone and Night Shift settings.


Ensure that True Tone is enabled:





With Night Shift enabled, you can adjust the colour temperature - from less warm (blue shift) to more warm (yellow shift). Night Shift is intended to mellow/warm the colour temperature during the evening.
