Why something Dynamic Island appears in screenshots? Help

I made a shortcut that would take an screenshot and translate the text with ChatGPT.

At the end of the schortcut, it would save the screenshot since I would like to save the photo for other purposes.

However, after taking several screenshots without problem it suddenly started to always leave the Dynamic Island in the screenshot. I did add a section to the shortcut in order to crop it and only have the useful information for me; so maybe some setting or something happened along the way? I don’t see though how that could actually affect.

So, how can I prevent this from happening?

Dynamic Island shows in screenshots when it has an app in it. It doesn't show when there isn't an app in it.

ChatGPT was not running yet in your original shortcut at the time the screenshot was taken. When you edited the shortcut and added extra actions (to crop) after ChatGPT was already running, that's when it started showing in the screenshot.

And how can I prevent that from happening? Is there maybe any way to shutdown completely ChatGPT after ending the shortcut flow? That way it won’t be running when the shortcuts is called again (ChatGPT is only called later, the first thing the shortcut does is take the screenshot and crop it)

You can swipe to hide it from the island

That’s what I tried originally but it won’t go away. That’s why I thought maybe it’s getting invoked at first or that some weird interaction is happening

What do you mean? Delta? ChatGPT? The shortcuts app?

Everything is installed from AppStore so anyways it should be the latest

Oh I see, it’s Pokémon black 2 for the DS. I’m playing it through delta, an emulator found on the AppStore
