When I use the search function on any browser in iOS, the topic scroller jumps to about halfway through the topic, and wants to keep scrolling until it reaches the top of a topic if you continue typing in the search bar:

## In a Topic: ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/5/b/5b496f389534a5d63486610ae0c82d99d711b0c7.PNG) ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/3/c/3c2716c27dfcf3e8c4e3db50540ddc39f3471d5a.PNG) ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/9/2/926955299b5781b87dd5f5f580a90b54c1bfd209.PNG) ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/d/1/d160365e18bb962566d2f1c63d11233c3fbb26e7.PNG) ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/8/6/861f12b97d3abeec0894e96d4efbf1c0577864b1.PNG)

On the homepage (with private mode on, only):

This is worse when using private browsing. It occurs using Safari or Chrome, using both an iPad Mini (1st gen) and iPad Air 2. This does not happen using a PC. It happens both on Discourse Meta and the Infinite Flight Community (two I’ve tested this on).

This is a duplicate of the other iPad report @erlend_sh made.

> Let me know if you can also reproduce this. So far I’ve tested on iPad Air 2, Safari and Chrome: Go to a topic long enough that you need to load a new batch of posts Scroll to the bottom of the topic Click the search button, then click the search field to invoke the virtual keyboard The keyboard should go off-screen Won’t work on mobile because we immediately go straight to full-screen search there.
