Dynamic Island blocking content on Snapchat

On Snapchat I can’t fully see the names on chats and when watching stories the top is blocked by the dynamic pill shape. It appears that everything has been shifted upwards

The app apparently wasn’t updated for the iPhone 15 models.

The display layout available to apps is a little different from previous models.

If the app is updated to current and the issue persists, contact the app developer.

Here is how to: Contact a third-party vendor - Apple Support

I agree. I upgraded to the 15 pro recently. I recognize the dynamic island is not specific to this model. I find that the dynamic island blocks content for the specific app, Snapchat. The username is unreadable in most cases for the conversation being had. Moreover, the go back “<“ button in the top left of the screen from unique conversations is unusable on this model. The app must be closed and reopened entirely to access the primary list of contacts. Please help

You could return the iPhone 15. 🤪


But seriously, it’s not anybody’s job to fix the Snapchat app, other than he people that work for Snapchat.

Apple isn’t going to fix this. Snapchat is.
