Is there any way to get rid of this dark grey bar that appears when selecting any text box in Safari in iOS 14.4.2? I’m using an iPhone 12 Pro Max. I’ve been trying to search for a solution but haven’t been able to find one yet.

Hey there Tyraire,
We understand you're seeing a gray bar on the iPhone display when selecting a text box in Safari, and we'd like to see if we can assist.
Do you experience this when typing in both landscape and portrait mode, or only in one orientation?
If you have any third-party keyboards installed, try removing them and test for the issue again.
Also, does this happen in any other apps?
If this only occurs with Safari, try the steps here: If an app on your iPhone or iPad stops responding, closes unexpectedly, or won’t open
While the title doesn't specifically mention this issue, the steps may help resolve it.
Cheers!

Tyraire,
Thanks for keeping us updated.
We're glad to hear restarting your iPhone resolved the issue with the gray bar appearing when typing.
Feel free to post again if you have any questions in the future.
Take care.
Thank you! Apparently restarting my phone solved the issue. Sometimes its the simplest solution that works I guess.
