Visual bug with bottom bar on different apps

Hi. Lately I'm having this issue in several apps, in which there are an extra background for each option in the bottom menu. At first I thought it was a bug from the iOs version that I had in that moment, but I updated 2 or 3 times until now, and this is still there:


Example in WhatsApp:


Example in Clock:


Example in App Store:


I asked a friend to see if there was only something in my phone, and it seems yes, because here is WhatsApp and Clock on his iPhone (both are iPhone 13 Pro Max):



What can be causing this issue? And what can I do to fix it?


Thanks.

The thing is I've had already that option off, but the problem remained. I tried turning on again that accesibility option, turn off the phone, turning on again, switch the Button Shapes off again, and restart the iPhone, but nothing happened.

Nevertheless, I didn't know that this was something related with Button Shapes, and I found the solution here Button shapes won't turn off - Apple Community.


Thanks!

Hi facufrastas,


We're able to help with this concern you're seeing.


This isn't a bug, but instead is an accessibility feature you've enabled called Button Shapes.


If you would like to turn off Button Shapes, you can go to Settings > Accessibility > Display & Text Size, you can turn off Button Shapes right here.


It's up to you if you would like for this to be changed or not, but rest assured there's nothing wrong with your iPhone.
