Ghost image stays on my phone screen for a few minutes

After using an app with a fixed nav bar, I can faintly see it on the screen for a while after switching to something else. It fades eventually. Is this temporary image retention or the start of real burn in? Phone is a Redmi with an LCD.

That's image retention on an OLED screen. If it fades by itself after a few minutes it's temporary, not burn-in. Lower brightness and a shorter auto-lock help, and dark mode too.
