Snapchat is likely aware of the bug.
Snapchat will fix the bug.
You don’t need to do anything.
Your iPhone is not damaged.
There is no need to worry.
I am worried because I updated it to the latest version of snap but it did not fix.

I get a similar issue with my keyboard on WhatsApp, despite being on iOS 26.0.1 and the latest version of the app. It’s just a software glitch, it’ll probably be patched with either a future app update or iOS 26.1, depending on the culprit.
I updated the software to 26.0.1 for iOS but it didn’t fix
 
Yeah, just be patient. Lots of software glitches because of the big visual overhaul that will hopefully be sorted soon.

It seems like other people aren’t having this same issue, theirs is another keyboard issue. That is the reason why I’m worried since I seem like Im the only person who’s having this white space pop up. This never happened to me before. Hopefully it gets fixed eventually by future updates.
 
I just noticed this is happening on other messengers too such as Facebook messenger. So there is nothing I can do for now? Here is the screen shot. I thought this was only happening on Snapchat but I it seems other messaging apps as well.

It seems to just be you. So here's another idea ... (and it is just a guess!).

Change your phone's language and keyboard to another one, such as Spanish as an example. Reboot. Then change it back to English and reboot again.

You could try just changing the keyboard first - maybe German or French, watching out for the movement of letters like Z, Q, Y. Then of course changing it back.

Possibly a setting you have changed. Check zoom level, default font size, ect.

I suspect that your phone has been infected with the Pegasus trojan developed by the Israeli security services.


They must have taken an interest in your snapchat discussions.

I would wrap your phone in tinfoil and then put it in the microwave just to be on the safe side. Don't turn on the microwave. I reiterate do not turn on the microwave. You are just taking advantage of its faraday cage properties.

Leave it in there for 48 hours and you should be good to go. The trojan will wither on the vine without connectivity.

Alternatively back your phone up to icloud or your computer and then restore IOS deleting any aftermarket keyboards installed before you do.
