There is a white flag in the top right hand corner of my ipad home screen. Can anyone tell me what it means?

White Flag?

If you can post a screenshot here, someone may be able to offer appropriate advice. To take a screenshot:

Take a screenshot on your iPad – Apple Support

Upload using this button in the edit window:

See this support page:--> Learn the meaning of the iPad status icons - Apple Support

If it isn't among the symbols listed in the above page, take a screenshot and show us that "flag" :--> Take a screenshot on your iPad - Apple Support

Thanks and regards

It might be on your wallpaper. Try to use a different one :--> Change the wallpaper on iPad - Apple Support

Does this flag appear only on your Home Screen pages - or when using Apps as well?

The “flag” is definitely not system generated. Appearing only on Home Screens and not when Apps are displayed would suggest that this an element of your chosen wallpaper image.

If the image has appeared only after setting your wallpaper image - and is not an element of the wallpaper image itself - then an installed App is generating the icon.

You're most welcome (nothing is taken for granted when sophisticated and complex devices are used).
