Unresponsive keyboard while using screenshot copy and delete function

Whenever I try to copy and delete a screenshot, and then move to a different app to paste the screenshot, the app freezes and the keyboard stops responding:


The device is working normally ---> Take a screenshot ---> Copy and delete ---> Change apps (e.g. WhatsApp, Discord) ---> Try to paste the copied screenshot ---> Paste option doesn't appear ---> App freezes, keyboard is unresponsive ---> Restart the device to bring it back to normal


I would like to know if there are any fixes for this bug. My software is up to date. Thanks in advance!

iPhone 12, iOS 16
