New Siri problem

Why is the new Siri appearing on the side of the phone when in landscape mode, unlike the volume button and action button?

No one here can answer a “why” question. We’re just fellow users like yourself. This may be a problem for you because you expected something else. Consider it a cosmetic glitch and report it to Apple using feedback. Perhaps it will be dealt with in some future update unless Apple considers it normal.


Feedback - iPhone - Apple


This does not appear to be the YouTube app, Apple TV app, or Apple Music app. The interface shown in the screenshot looks quite different from the standard playback screens of those apps.


What is particularly unusual is the large Siri-like animated graphic appearing on the left side of the screen, while the video controls are displayed in the centre. The screen also shows the title “Angel Beats! – E10 – Goodbye Days”, along with 10-second rewind/forward controls and a playback timeline.


So the important question is: What application or player is actually being used here? Is this a third-party video player, a browser-based player, an Apple TV interface, or some other app?

I was using Crunchyroll (the anime streaming service)
