Messenger is only half screen

Since the last IOS update my Messenger app is only half screen and can't be used. Is there a fix or is it my iPhone?

iPhone 8, iOS 13

Hi Norma2003,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you're using the Messenger app developed by Facebook and that only half the screen in the app is working properly. I can help point you in the right direction.


To help troubleshoot an app, I recommend following the steps outlined in this helpful article: If an app unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open Following these steps can help resolve the issue you're experiencing.


Kind regards.
