The number on the back is A1822.As you can see there is a fine line square around the App store app.
Every app you tap on will get this square.

That looks like a focus square. Do you have a mouse or pointing device paired to that iPad? The external pointing device could be the cause.

I would still have a look around in Settings > Accessibility > Touch > Assistive Touch and see if there is anything amiss. What you’re describing is called a “focus indicator”, you would also see something similar if you were to use a keyboard and use the Tab key to switch UI input elements (buttons, text boxes, tabs, etc.) - the focus indicator goes from element to element each time you press the tab key.

@420benz I think I found it. Go into Settings > Accessibility and see if Switch Control is turned on. If so, turn it off. This should turn off the outline.

Yeah, switch control turns on that square thingy.
