Hello :waving_hand:

I think this bug is not related with Discourse but with Chrome new update Chrome 119.0.6045.163.

I share this to prevent and for reference the possible bug reports about this issue in here.

The bug :arrow_down_small:

It happens when the bottom navigation bar is used and try to switching app or try to running in the background while the keyboard is opened. It’s probably a calculation issue.

On Discourse it’s happen for example: when the composer opened. On the video you can see it seems the composer broken and can’t be open again, however it is just off the screen and I think cannot focus and open the keyboard again. When I select a text the composer show up.

I tested it with the latest Edge and Firefox. On these browser this issue doesn’t exist.

Also tried other sites like X where the same issue happens on Chrome.

Without using the bottom navigation bar it works fine:
