Keyboard keeps disappearing when trying to type ALT text for media on Android

Open Danie10 opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

This is an issue on my Android app v1.0.0.43. I'm suspecting it has something to do with the screen size/space/layout. I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra with latest stable OS and UI6.0

Problem is when the screen appears for typing the ALT text in, when I touch in the text box, the keyboard pops up but immediately disappears again. I've tried an alternative keyboard, and it's the same, and also tried landscape mode, but the app does not rotate.

I can enter the ALT text if I use my desktop computer browser and edit the post media.

Here is a quick video of it happening:

Same here ... Tried to edit ALT text on new photo on Android. The keyboard appears and closes again. Recurring. Not able to enter text.

Same for me still. Can't type any Alt text, having to use an alternative app for the time being.
