iphone 17 glitching and apps appearing all black

hi everyone, so i recently got the new iphone 17 but im having a certain issue with it. idk why but occasionally the screen would glitch for a tiny second and freeze for that said tiny second – which on its own isn’t a crazy issue but the actual problem for me is that out of nowhere my apps just go all black ?? like they would appear as complete black boxes for some reason and are not fixed without restarting my phone which is incredibly frustrating. i got my phone about three days ago so im worried and don’t know what to do. i tried seeing if it was because of an impending update or so but no i already updated it to ios 26. can someone please help ? i’ll add both the said issue and how it normally looks


ps. it might be due to my phone set up but i have also used it like this with my prior phone (iphone xr) and never had such an issue
