cant use emoji and microphone buttons

hello. All of a sudden i cant get to the emoji button or the microphone; they are each half off the screen so cant' click on them enough to make them active.

I saw a post from 2 years ago about this and apple's solution; go to settings, accessibility, zoom. My zoom is turned off so I turned on then back off (as well as powered off then back on), nothing has changed

Anyone have any other suggestions? I am really missing the microphone button :)

I have an iphone 11 and my OIS is up to date. TY

Frequently Used Emojis button missing I have been having this issue for quite some time (months, maybe a year), but when i respond to a text from the lock screen, my "Frequently Used Emojis" button is not available, if you open up the text after unlocking the iPhone, it is there. I'd say about 3-5% of the time the button is available when replying from the lock screen. Not sure when it started exactly, but after every iOS update, I hoped it would fix the problem, but it's still a problem

iPhone change keyboard language and microphone buttons won’t let me tap them I have suddenly been having this issue where the button to change my language and use the microphone on my iPhone keyboard don’t work. They appear halfway off the screen regardless of orientation, and I cannot tap them. Restarting my phone as well as deleting and re-adding the extra keyboards have not worked.
