iPhone Blurry in top left corner

Any one else seeking a blurry rectangle at on their screen after doing the update? Any idea how to make it go away? Or how to actually report it to Apple?

Just suddenly happened to my iPhone 11 ios 14.2 Even screenshots have the blur. The power off screen does not. I rebooted it while plugged in, for whatever that is worth, and the problem went away. This is some sort of rendering bug, and the power off screen must use a different rendering system.

For me the problem is 100% reproducible. I have an iPhone XS running iOS14.4. Each time an application makes use of the horizontal mode, e.g. make a photo with the Photos app and try afterwards to look at it horizontal mode, or I look at a photo in WhatsApp, it occurs.

Settings - Display & Brightness - Appearance: Dark -> Light or Light --> Dark, immediately overcomes the problem until the iPhone is used the next time in horizontal mode.

This happened to me a a few mins ago and decided to research about what caused it. luckily i’m not the only one that experienced the top left blurry thingy, if ur experiencing the same thing and don’t wanna restart ur phone just go to the display setting and keep on switching the “Light mode” & “Dark mode” and it should go probably away on its own.
