Hi, does anyone know why there’s a pink line on my screen? I’m using an iPhone 14 Pro.

A vertical pink line on an iPhone 14 Pro screen indicates a hardware issue with the OLED display panel or its internal flex cable connection. This symptom occurs when a specific column of pixels in the display matrix loses proper contact or sustains physical damage. It cannot be resolved through software adjustments.
To confirm that this is a hardware failure rather than a temporary software glitch, you can perform a force restart:
If the pink line remains visible on the screen while the white Apple logo is booting up, the issue is definitively a hardware fault. The entire display assembly will need to be replaced to resolve the problem.
If the device has no signs of physical impact, accidental drops, or liquid exposure, it may be evaluated for an isolated component defect. You should schedule an appointment at an Apple Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider to have a technician inspect the phone and provide repair options.
To help determine your next steps, please let me know:

A pink or green line on an iPhone screen often is the start of the screen failing. First try a Force Restart --> Force restart iPhone - Apple Support
If that doesn't help, you'll need to schedule an appointment at your Apple Store Genius Bar for evaluation and service options/costs --> Genius Bar Reservation and Apple Support Options - Apple

Welcome and thank you for reaching out. 🤗
There appears to be a problem with the internal display panel. Only a certified Apple technician can determine the cause and offer a complete solution.
Therefore, I recommend service.
