I am experiencing distorted buttons when I toggle the always on display on my iPhone 18 pro.

One thing to try beyond a restart: Settings > Accessibility > Display & Text Size > turn on Reduce Transparency, and check Reduce Motion in Accessibility > Motion. If the distortion goes away with those on, it's a rendering glitch in the current iOS build. If not, Settings > General > Transfer or Reset > Reset > Reset All Settings (keeps your data) is the next step.
