I’m self hosting Discourse. Latest version, up to date, no third-party plugins. I have the PWA installed on my iPhone (iOS 26.5) and it is almost perfect. However, when I reply to a topic, the text area zooms in, the reply button scrolls out of view, and I have to rotate the phone to get the screen …

I think it is a regression. I rebuilt a couple of days ago. I will try again now, however. What version info do I need to provide to validate I’m on a (supposedly) fixed version?

After a rebuild, the problem still exists. [image]

Any news on this? Still seeing it after the 2026.7 update.

I have fixed this last week I believe: FIX: Restore pinch-zoom over the mobile composer editor and inputs (#42303) main ← fix-composer-mobile-touch-gestures merged 10:47AM - 04 Aug 26 UTC (UTC) …

I just updated my Discourse instance; I’m now at 158af4674d75807b5d5cb423430630ff2140e6ef . Unfortunately the problem persists, identical to the recording I shared in the first post. I uninstalled and reinstalled the PWA (in attempt to purge cache) and still no dice.

Can it please be backported? I really want to stay on a stable release, and it seems like this was a fix for a regression, and is quite small.

It’s being backported for these versions: 2026.7: FIX: Restore pinch-zoom over the mobile composer editor and inputs [backport 2026.7] #42679 2026.6: FIX: Restore pinch-zoom over the mobile composer editor and inputs [backport 2026.6] #42680 2026.1: FIX: Restore pinch-zoom over the mobile composer…

I’ve updated! Thank you for back-porting. I’ve updated to v2026.7.1 at 2b482315. The problem is not fully solved, however. The same behavior presents when tapping into the textarea. The difference is that now when I dismiss the keyboard I can pinch-zoom-out and when I tap into the text area again t…
