Now, much has been written about the “fantastic” new way how you can use dictation and keyboard at the same time in iOS 16.
However, one “feature” is making it unusable:

I have set up two languages for dictation (English and German).
In the old world, it was so easy: Show the English keyboard, dictate in English, show the Germany keyboard, dictate in German.

Now, every time you stop saying something (e.g. to check if it transcribed your words correctly), a language selection flag comes up and places itself right over my text - hiding it from my view. Not only is it something that does not help, it is not even smart enough to auto-detect the language, or change the language retroactively in case I started talking with the wrong keyboard showing. It just is a useless nuisance (see my attached picture).

Does anyone here know how to disable this language selector?
