App freezing after using copy and delete function in screenshot

Apps become unresponsive after using copy and delete function after screenshot | iPad Pro, iOS 16. Tried it on several apps, including note, OneNote. Keyboard becomes unresponsive and only work around is to use a force restart. Any one else faces issues and possible solutions for the same?

iPad Pro, iPadOS 16

Hi, thanks for getting back.


Here are the steps.


Take screenshot > on the screenshot preview page, I tap on copy and delete > go to other third party apps like OneNote or notability > on long pressing to paste, the app freezes.


I later opened safari to search for the issue, and when I pressed the search bar, the on screen keyboard wouldn’t pop up and safari would freeze and become unresponsive as well.


The only way to work around this is to force restart- press volume up, then volume down, then long press power button till apple logo displays.


If I use the share option on the top right hand corner of the screenshot preview screen, and then press “copy to clipboard”, I do not face this issue when I want to take a screenshot and paste it in any third party app.


The issue seems to be with the “copy and delete” option.
