Lock Screen Permanent Rectangle?

It’s been bugging me for the last couple days but there’s a grey rectangle about the size of the music you see on home screen ( ios 16 )


I have no clue what’s wrong it’s kinda annoying since it covers up the wallpaper

iPhone 13, iOS 16

Try performing a "forced restart" of your 13, using these gestures:

Press and quickly release the volume up button, press and quickly release the volume down button, then press and hold the side (power) button. Only when the Apple logo appears (it might take 10-20 seconds), release that button (ignore all other screens that might appear, the one with the "slider" to turn the device off included).
