White bar shows up every time I type in my iPhone 16 I think I accidentally added something in settings late last night on my iPhone 16. Now a white bar shows up every time I type. I can slide it to either side to read my text so I thought it was a privacy setting? [Re-Titled By Moderator]

Horizontal Line bottom of screen? This has been an annoying feature of iPhones. The black or white horizontal line that appears at the bottom of the screen. When playing games, watching movies or just using some apps, there’s that annoying line. I have OCD and it bugs me all the time I see it. I know how to swipe up to go back to the home screen, so giving users a way to disable this would be greatly appreciated! Our family and my friends have reported this years ago, and seems like Apple aren’t getting our messages or simply just ignoring us. Please do a system update to give users the ability to hide the black or white horizontal line that appears at the bottom of the screen.

Hello otherview,

You mentioned seeing 'Extended' in the upper left of your iPhone display. It most likely appears near your cellular data icon indicating signal. This is related to your cellular service from your carrier. We'd recommend reaching out to your carrier to confirm what this indicates in terms of your signal or service and possibly where you are located.

Take care.
