iPhone 13 why top left corner is blurry?

This just started this morning, the top left corner of my phone is blurry. I know how to fix it but it’s happened several times. I want to know why is it happening? I have not dropped my phone or it hasn’t been in water at all.

Hmm that’s interesting. Honestly I recently got the phone and it’s still the background they provided to me! Haha Maybe if I change it it’ll go away? Idk. Seems odd to me that it happens to so many people. Every time it happens I just restart and it goes away so not a huge deal just figured maybe there was a long term solution. Thanks for the comment!

Hi,


yesterday i had this issue that confused me a lot.

The Top left corner of my screen became blurred on iOS 15.6 so i did not see the operator anymore.

it lasts only five minutes.

the lock screen (notification screen with your finger go top to back) had not this issue but the operator name was followed by « wifi call »

i just close the screen and wait and it disappeared (i did not reboot phone)

I suspect a hacker attack.

How can i be sure ?

sadly i did not make a screenshot

i made ios 15.6.1 update after that

Hello ~ You are addressing the person who themselves has/had the same issue. I am not having this issue with my iPhone so it cannot be a software issue or we would all have it…right? I see that no one in this thread is telling you to “go fix your phone or contact apple” Although that may be exact what you need to do.

I’m having this issue as well and it is now September and I’ve had my iPhone for only a couple months. Obviously it’s a software issue cuz all of us have it or we wouldn’t be here now would we? Plus I see so many comments saying “go fix your phone” or “go to the apple store”. Apple won’t do anything if it’s software and not the phone itself so no point in going to the store.

I think the cause has to do with picture in picture mode. If you watch a youtube video but you get a text so you go to your messages the video is there in the top of the screen. It happened to me for the second time last night, and what was i doing? Well i was indeed watching anime on crunchyroll and mid watch i checked a text. Or maybe has to do with swiping the top corners down considering the screen get blurry mid swipe. Idk man thats what i think. Only confusion is why switching day/night mode the fix? Maybe cause it drastically changes the display of your phone? For any ipad users, does this problem happen to you?
