We're observing several UI issues with VNDocumentCameraViewController on devices running iOS 26. These screens were functioning correctly in earlier iOS versions.

Issue 1 - On the edge correction screen, the top bar now appears as a gray strip beneath the status bar, whereas in previous iOS versions, it was positioned at the bottom of the screen. Do we have any workarounds to address this issue?

Issue2 - The edit buttons and their labels are not clearly visible, affecting usability.

Im using XCode 16.4 to build to iOS26 and the usage is like below:

`let scanner = VNDocumentCameraViewController() scanner.delegate = self

self.present(scanner, animated: true)`

Following up on this issue, specifically - the edge correction screen top bar positioning issue is significantly impacting our app.

To provide more context:

The grey strip appearing beneath the status bar (instead of at the bottom) makes the UI appear broken to users.
The issue is consistent across all iOS 26 devices we've tested.
Custom styling or modifications are not possible to the VNDocumentCameraViewController as per my knowledge.

Has anyone else encountered this? We'd greatly appreciate:

Confirmation whether this is expected behaviour or a known issue.
Any recommended workarounds or API changes we should implement

Any guidance from Apple Engineering would be highly appreciated.
