As of the release of the 1.21.0 update, the hotbar isn't working properly on iPhone 14. It's not selecting whatever item/block I press in the hotbar, but rather, it interacts with the terrain. It also doesn't let me press inventory. I also tried resizing the hotbar, but it still didn't work.
Thank you for your report!
