iPhone 15 recovery key displays only 24 characters
Hello I’m having an issue with my iPhone 15. When trying to replace my 28 character recovery key I can only view 24 characters the last four are dotted out?

I can see that the Recovery Key displayed on your screen contains only 24 visible characters. However, the three dots (…) at the end indicate that additional characters are hidden beyond the visible portion.
To view the complete 28-character Recovery Key, place your finger anywhere on the Recovery Key and press and hold firmly until the text insertion pointer appears. Once the pointer is visible, move it towards the right-hand end of the text and scroll horizontally to reveal the remaining characters.
Continue moving towards the end until you can see all 28 characters. This will allow you to view the complete Recovery Key rather than just the first 24 characters displayed on the screen.
Important: Make sure you record the entire 28-character key accurately and store it securely. Do not share your Recovery Key with anyone, as it is a critical security credential for your Apple Account.

Did you increase the font size on your phone? If so, change it back to the native size.
