iPhone 15 pro max user grey box over texts

iPhone 15 pro max since last update now covers my text with a grey box I cannot remove. Stops you being able to edit text and regularly makes apps and so on freeze as you cannot click on the screen the box appears on. It’s really annoying, rendering the phone almost pointless as a device to communicate with written words. You cannot use voice on an email for example…

Try a forced restart.

• Press and quickly release the volume down button

• Press and hold the side button.

• When the Apple logo appears, release the button.
