iPhone 12 Pro Max Screenshot delay

I have been having a drastic delay on screenshots with my iPhone 12 Pro Max. It takes several seconds for the screenshot to appear, if at all. I have had to take the screenshot more than once, then it shows up twice in my photos. I have been having other glitch issues as well with keyboards and such, but the screenshot is the most frustrating.


I see that others have been having this issue since late last year.


I have updated to iOS 14.8 two days ago, and have done other updates prior. I cannot recall when it started, but would like to know if there is a fix for this yet.
