Hello alit_,


This is completely normal and is an accessibility feature! It allows you to reach/tap the top of the screen without having to move your hands - Reach the top of the iPhone screen with one hand - Apple Support.


You can disable this feature if you don't like it


  1. Open Settings
  2. Tap Accessibility
  3. Tap Touch
  4. Toggle off Reachability


I hope this helps!
