Apps not using full screen after upgrade to IOS 14 on iphone x

As the description states I updated my Iphone X to IOS 14 and now many app's don't use the full screen. I have Zoom turned off and have power cycled my phone. App's like facebook, Weather Bug, Chrome and many others have a gap between the top and bottom of the screen when in portrait mode.

I figured it out. Go to Settings -> Display & Brightness. Then go to the bottom to the Display Zoom. Change the View to Standard.

If I use display zoom on my iPhone XS I have borders on my apps for some reason they act like they would as if they were on an iPhone 8 or 8+ having black bars on the top and bottom. As soon as I turn displays them off it uses the full screen again. I did have to restart it for it to kick inv Don’t think that’s the right answer for you and it’s super irritating to me. Hope they fix it soon.

Why? Facebook updates their app about every two weeks or so and often screws up my phone when they do. They are my first suspect if I start to experience rapid battery drain and that instinct has been right on several occasions. I don't use any Google apps so I cannot speak to that. What other steps have you taken to resolve this? Can you post a screen shot?
