Same here. Just got the new iPad Pro 2024 (May 18, 2024). Having issue using the ‘arrow up’ share button and a tiny half keyboard comes up to the left of the screen. It goes through the motions of sharing but the keyboard swings to the left of the pad and then you can click the share button nothing happens. I have the latest iOS 17.5 - shut down rooted- nothing.
