iOS Can't play on iPhone 16 because the in game menu is unclickable

I switched from Android to iPhone last week. I decided to download and try playing Stardew Valley on my phone. Once I get into the game, I can't access the in game menu. The iPhone 16 screen has very rounded corners and I think that the hit area for the menu is in the top right corner. The game thinks that it is playing on a square screen and it isn't. There is no way to access the in game options from the start screen in the game. For the iPhone 16, I think that the game should default to a square box that is below the Notch/Dynamic Island (or whatever we call it now) and also above the rounded corners on the bottom of the phone. I would rather have less screen real estate available to play than to not be able to play at all.

I included a screenshot of the game and an edit of the screenshot that I made to try and show how the edges of the screen are blacked out and unavailable. My build is v1.6.14.11 build 24341

Thank you for any help,

Junius

Hope this helps, get into the settings and try these settings. Remember you can pinch to zoom in and out, and remember, you can rotate the phone if you want the island on the opposite side of the screen.
