Black Border on XR Screen

How do I fix a black boarder on my screen. Whenever I’m watching a video or turning my phone sideways, a piece is cut off.

Hi shaila162,


It seems you're having some trouble with watching videos and we can help.


Since videos are of varying aspect ratios, they won't always fill your iPhone screen. Some apps might allow you to zoom in by placing two fingers on the screen near each other. Spread them apart to zoom in.


Here is more info on gestures to interact with your iPhone:

Let us know if that helps.
