Can't Trim Video filmed on iPhone iOS 16.6 (Yellow trim box missing)

None of my videos can be trimmed on my iphone. All filmed on it. There are no yellow sliders to trim when going into the video on the photos app and clicking edit. Tapping on it doesn't do that. The white band is just the place where the video is playing. I don't understand? I reset the iphone, but the function doesn't appear anywhere on the slider below. Note in the screen cap there is no yellow trim box. The (...) doesn't provide any such option either. Attempts at any video is like this.

After searching for an answer to this problem I’ve found the solution after hours of trying. All the instructions seem to say tap on the handle at the end it’ll turn yellow, but this doesn’t work. What you have to do is the tap hold and then drag. It’s quite tricky to get the sequence to work properly, but it’s the dragging, which is the key, frustrating people do not make these instructions clearer
