Greyed out app icons while sharing photos/files through iPhone

I do have intermittent issues while sharing (mainly) photos through share button.


quite often upon pressing share I can’t select app not even see further details through to share it.


does anyone have similar issues or know how to fix them?

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 17

Both my husband and I are having the exact same issue. It seems to have started within the last couple of weeks, so I’m wondering if it wasn’t because of the most recent IOS update? Rebooting gets it back to normal for a little while, but then it happens again. This occurs when trying to share a photo, something in Safari, something in an app - anytime I use the share icon (square with up arrow) in any app. The usual top row of icons that show the apps/contacts you most often share with are not visible/greyed out and the buttons below have no action when you click on them.
