Hello,

It appears that your wallpaper is a screenshot, which is why the green bar would persist at the top of your screen. You can learn how to replace the wallpaper with the same picture, or a new one by following this guide: Change the wallpaper on your iPhone - Apple Support


Thanks for reaching out!
