Well, I can't see anything wrong in the picture. Can we get a detailed one? (If possible - with more explanation.)– Pramesh BajracharyaCommented Dec 11, 2016 at 3:25

I'm 400% zoomed in right now and I still can't see the blue text. Can you doodle on the picture and post it (edit this post and then post the picture)?– Pramesh BajracharyaCommented Dec 11, 2016 at 3:43

I realize now that it is not visible in the screenshot I t is only visible to me because it is on my screen it is not affecting any thing inside the display– nakulCommented Dec 11, 2016 at 3:55

Damn. I was so fade up with my sight. Try uninstalling any recent apps you installed. Hope works!– Pramesh BajracharyaCommented Dec 11, 2016 at 3:58

The Moto G4 has an issue with screen retention. Basically when something is on the screen in the same place for a long time, it will "burn in" and leave an after-image for a few minutes.
It seems that Motorola shipped the G4 with a screen that doesn't deal with screen retention very well, and it especially happens when the screen is warm.
In the end I had to flash a custom kernel (ElementalX) to the phone and use CF.Lumen to reduce the "Daytime color filter" settings to R=0.769,G=0.769,B=0.769 with the KCAL driver. This reduced the chance of screen retention significantly for me in exchange for screen brightness, but it still happens when the screen gets really hot.
