Why can’t I send texts with 'effects’ on my iPad Pro?? I can choose an effect, but the keyboard won’t disappear so I can tap the send arrow.

iPad Pro, iPadOS 16

Hi! This is more of a temporary fix, but having you tried changing the orientation of your iPad and trying to send a message with an effect in another orientation? For example, if you're having this issue in landscape mode, switch to portrait mode and vice versa.

Have a great day!
