Have you guys seen this before? Weird white shadow on my screen (especially on black screens). It only shows up for a second when loading a new app and then it goes away quickly back to normal. I thought if it was a hardware issue that I wouldn't be able to catch a screenshot of it. Is it possible that it is a hardware issue and I can still get a screen capture of it?
Got a tip for us?

Not a hardware issue. Definitely a software bug, I get the same thing when unlocking my 5s using Touch ID. Only rarely happens, though.
Pretty weird.
Try take a full backup and do a clean restore and see if the problem replicates.
U can then restore all date from backup

What phone do you have? It's really weird that it shows up in the screen shot. Are you using iOS 7.1
you're right about the animation. i went into the accessibility menu to turn on the reduced motion function or whatever its called to get rid of motion parallax and the white splotches disappeared. perhaps it has something to do with the animated background i had. the background was a stock animated background (the bluish one with bubbles).
anyways - appears to have fixed the issue.
i am just happy its not a hardware issue. thanks for the ideas guys.
