Apple Watch LCD Green Line Issue: Causes & When to Visit SPR
If a green vertical line suddenly appears on your Apple Watch screen, you’re not alone. Many users, especially with OLED displays, have reported this frustrating issue. At SPR – SmartPhone Repair, we frequently handle LCD and screen-related problems, including the dreaded green line. Here’s what you need to know.
What’s a Green Line Issue?
The green line issue usually shows up as a single vertical green stripe across your Apple Watch screen. It’s thin, doesn’t go away with a restart and can appear even when the screen isn’t physically cracked.
Common symptoms:
A vertical green line on one side of the screen
No cracks or visible external damage
The touchscreen may still work
The line appears after a software update or an impact
What Causes the Green Line on Apple Watch?
The most common causes include:
Display panel failure: Usually related to OLED screen degradation
Pressure damage: Sitting or pressing too hard on the watch face
Internal hardware fault: Loose connections or logic board issues
Software glitches: Sometimes appear after major iOS/watchOS updates
Water or moisture exposure (especially if not water-sealed properly)
Can You Fix It Yourself?
Unfortunately, this is not a DIY-friendly issue. Restarting or updating your Apple Watch may not fix it. Most of the time, a screen replacement or internal repair is needed.
