There is this black box on top of the iPhone 15 pro screen. The black box is not visually pleasing to the eyes. What is that? How can I get rid of this box?
How do I make this black box not visible.

How do I get rid of the black space at the top of my screen on a iPhone 15?
Please let me know if you find out! It's so ugly, and there's no hardware there anymore so why is there a box there? Just to take up space that could be taken by, oh gee, a NUMBER of different things-- like a clock that has seconds, or ACTUALLY SEEING THE PERCENTAGE NUMBER OF YOUR PHONE CHARGE? MAYBE? APPLE?????
Why is everything they make just a little bit worse each time
That's the dynamic island. It's part of the hardware on the phone. You can see it here: iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus - Apple

im regretting getting this iPhone 15. This is the last straw. I see it even when I’m watching you tube. Been buying iPhones for 20 years. I’m getting an android.
Did you get answer to your question? Any solution?
how do I remove black box at top off my iPhone 15 ? What is it ?
Actually, there is hardware there. It includes the TrueDepth sensor (for faceID), front camera, ambient light sensor, and more. Everything that was in the notch is in the Dynamic Island. While you can’t turn it off (that literally is impossible), you can take advantage of it with the features it brings over the notch:

Side note, you can turn on battery percentage from the battery section of the settings app.
Read the thread before posting. There is no "solution". You don't get rid of it...It is part of the design.
This is called Dynamic Island, you can’t disable it.
My option there is a hard wear there!!! I looked yesterday and saw the Meta symbol in it inside the blk box!!!
Ives what the ****! I am being watched? I hit it and it then disappeared!
then last night I saw a dot inside it?
I had been on the phone with a long time friend from school @ 2 hrs as our 50th reunion is coming up! The whole time I was talking to her till @ 11:35 PM it was visible. As soon as we disconnected… within a few seconds… it blinked it went off!!!!
you can not tell me that we are being watched and listened to!!!!!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬
This has already been answered
That’s the new dynamic island that was on the 14 pro models as well as all the 15s. It replaces the notch that was on the older models, which contains the selfie camera and face ID sensors. This article has more information about how to use it: Use the Dynamic Island on iPhone - Apple Support
Unless you’re getting a high end android, you’ll be faced with the same thing, just smaller and with no software features. The notch was visible in all the places the Dynamic Island is. All it does is makes it more useful.
Plus, unless you’re watching ultrawide videos (often movies or music videos), the Dynamic Island won’t be visible.
I encourage you and anybody else who has a Dynamic Island to look into the software features this adds below:
Also…. It shows I just did that last commit at 11:55 AM???
it is 1:34 PM at this point!!!!!
