iPhone 17 Pro status bar blurred and stuck

I have an Iphone 17 Pro iOS 26.1. There have been a few instances where I will open certain apps and the time, wifi, and battery levels at the top of the screen are blurred out. When I exit the apps, sometimes the blurred area does not go away and the only way I have been able to make it go away is restarting my phone. Is there any other ways to fix this or keep it from doing this at all?

iPhone 17 Pro, iOS 26
