So i recently bought a used pixel xl and honestly im loving it. I just have this weird problem ever since i turned on gesture navigation. There is an imprint of the navbar stuck on the bottom of the display. Also the whole screen has a yellowish tint except for that region of the navbar. please take look at the pictures to better understand.

That's burn in, there's potentially some ways to save it by running those screen savers but I never had good luck with those. Theoretically, you would have to change the panel. The way to comprehend for this is lowering the brightness and using the display in different ways and a chance that the burn in could go away, but in most cases, its permanent.

And what about the yellow tint in the display? It's that just a pixel XL thing
