iPhone screen borders extend outside of viewing area

iPhone XS Max on IOS 15.02. Issue described in title occurs on bottom, left and right edges. On Home Screen bottom row icons barely visible. I did have “zoom” and large text enabled, but had too many issues managing the screen view. Those are now NOT enabled and I have these bleed over issues. What would my next step be?

After that:

First try a Forced restart
