Describe the bug

It is impossible to input or edit text with a floating keyboard on an Android device. Text input works well when the keyboard is in the regular fixed position on the bottom of the screen and it is broken, when the keyboard is switched into floating mode.

I have made a screen cast showing the bug: https://youtu.be/aUzBQQV--l0?si=uUB5wbmDFbDMYr7z

I observe that with the Google keyboard on an Samsung Galaxy z fold device.

To reproduce

  1. Install a keyboard with the floating mode support. Google keyboard for example has such a mode.
  2. Open a new note in Saber.
  3. Switch the keyboard into the floating mode.
  4. Try to input and edit text.

Expected behavior

It is possible to write and edit text as usual.

Saber version

v0.24.4 F-Droid (24040)

Device

  • Device: Samsung Galaxy z fold 5
  • OS: Android 14

Anything else?
