iPadOS 16 Folder Bug
This issue has been reported by qw3rts, in the comments of our iPadOS 16.1 review page:
“There’s an unblurred spot on the top of my screen when i go into an app folder.”
Problem has been confirmed by Filly:
“Let me know if u have solution to solve the unblurred spot”
We’ve been able to easily replicate this bug. However, it only occurs when the folder is opened from Dock, either in landscape or portrait view!
How To Fix iPadOS 16 Folder Bug
Apple will have to fix this glitchy animation in an upcoming software update.
Until then, the only workaround available is to remove the folder from Dock. However, this might negatively affect your productivity, because apps will be harder to open.
Tip: Use Spotlight search to compensate until Apple issues a fix.

Click on any of the blur to close the folder/minimise it back to the dock.
Yes, that works. It’s more of an esthetic glitch.
