But that doesn't explain why the shadow extends so far below those elements. I understand why there's a shadow - what I don't understand is why so much of it.

Yes, that’s a good question - perhaps for consistency, to also accommodate for potential Dynamic Island antics? 🤷🏻‍♂️

I never said anything about notifications. I know how they work. There are no notifications when this happens. I can push the button and as soon as it goes off, one second later it comes back on. This happens a lot. My friend also sees this behavior on his iPhone. Next update likely fixes it.

Have you and your friend referred to each other’s feedback ID when you reported it via the Feedback app?

My iPhone keeps coming back on after turning off with the side button. I turn it off, then 3 seconds later it comes back on. A friend says his is doing the same.

Not a lot to go on there. What model(s)? Is Always on Display off? Do you have an Apple Watch set to unlock your phone?

Try turning off Raise to Wake (under Display & Brightness). Might be an issue with the accelerometer.

Just tested, this is not happening for me.

I presume you must have an app in the background that is triggering something to make iOS think it’s a notification.
