Anyone having an issue with the size of the reply box on iOS? When I have a message that is long, I’m unable to scroll down to see what I’m typing. It just reverts back to the top of the message. I thought it was because my phone didn’t have the latest update, but I went to iOS 15 last week and I’m still having the issue. Seems to only be happening on mobile.

In order for me to post this, I had to request desktop website on my iPhone

Are you up to date with the latest iOS 15 version? There are some Safari issues on iOS 15.0 and 14.1, the bottom status bar had a height calculation issue that was fixed in 15.2.

See if updating iOS helps. If not, please also let me know the model of your device.

I don’t have an SE and can’t reproduce in the iPhone SE simulator.

Have you disabled the Visual Viewport API in Safari’s Advanced \> Experimental Features by any chance?

Go ahead and enable it, it should fix your composer issues. By default, that setting is enabled in Safari, it’s there just for testing purposes.
