Page reload spring when reached bottom of page in iOS beta

Contribute Bug

AI-generated summary

The issue is a page reload spring effect when reaching the bottom of a page on iOS, observed in the Chrome iOS beta build, but also reproducible in the public release. Mixonepa provided videos demonstrating the issue and mentioned it happens on all pages. joffreyjaffeux requested a specific topic URL to reproduce the issue, and Mixonepa provided another video.

Mixonepa specified using an iPhone XR with the latest iOS developer beta and Chrome’s latest iOS beta build. awesomerobot noted that beta browsers and OS versions are not supported, and suggested a possible relation to a header flickering issue.

Mixonepa will try to mess with Chrome flag settings to resolve the issue. Stephen asked for the Chrome version, and Mixonepa provided the version number. Stephen suspects the issue is related to the iOS beta, as it couldn’t be reproduced on the public iOS release. awesomerobot acknowledged that beta OS versions are not supported.

We don’t support beta browsers (though I saw you mention it’s happening on the public release too).

I just tested this on an iPhone XS in Chrome on Wyze with the dark theme selected and can’t reproduce the issue (tried here on Meta too)…

I wonder if it’s related to Header flickering on mobile? It’s a stretch, but the type of flickering feels similar.

Hello @awesomerobot, the Issue I’m having seems very similar to what the OP was experiencing, I’ma try and mess with some chrome flag settings and see if I can get it to stop I’ll update if I can.

Which version of Chrome is that? 73.0.3683.67?

I don’t think it’s the chrome beta as much as the iOS beta being used. I’ve tested on current public iOS release with Chrome, and the beta build, no repro.

We’re expecting a bunch of webkit changes in iOS 12.2.

Ah right, I overlooked that — we also don’t support beta OS versions.

Hopefully we see a decrease in Safari bugs rather than an increase :sweat_smile:
