App "Keyboard" Covering Text Input

4.5

When you try to type, the keyboard pops up and hides the box you are typing into.

Symptoms
  • Cannot see what I type
  • UI overlap
  • Frustrating input
Possible Causes
  • App design bug
  • Large font size settings
  • Third-party keyboard

Step-by-Step Fix

1

Reduce System Font Size

If your text is set to "Extra Large", it can break app layouts.

2

Switch to Default Keyboard

Try the stock Apple or Google keyboard instead of a custom one.

3

Update the App

This is usually a bug that developers fix in layout updates.

When to See a Technician

This happens when an app doesn't correctly "listen" for the keyboard height event from the OS.
