When I enter task manager, on the bottom of the screen, I get this “advertisement” or shortcut to an app on my phone. Why is this happening? How can I disable it?
 
Settings, general, handoff. Disable it.

But whats this „xt“ in the center of the screen?

I turned handoff off, but the banner is still there. Any other suggestions? It's annoying.

I think the remnants on the screenshot may have come from when I was editing it to remove my user name. It's not there now. It's possible that it was also display corruption.
 
Turn it on and off again. I saw this bar too today on my xs and after I disable this setting and restarting its gone.

It might have to do with location based suggestions (in privacy location system settings) and/or Siri suggestions.
