Keyboard covering text box

[nemismom]

I have a Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. A week or two ago I started having an issue with the keyboard covering the text box. This happens on multiple apps. I have tried clearing the cache, restarting the phone, resetting the keyboard, etc. It's driving me crazy! Help!

What keyboard app are you using? Have you tried another keyboard app?

 

[nemismom]

Samsung. No, I have not. I will try another. Thanks
ETA: I tried the Google keyboard, and still had the issues. Recommendations for other keyboards, please?

Have either of you tried Microsoft SwiftKey keyboard app? That's another good one I use.

Omg...same problem here. Let me see if I can fill the text box enough to duplicate the prob and get a screenshot. I'm using Gboard.


Ok here's the last line I can see. The next line is covered

I used SK a long time ago and don't remember why I stopped.

Try resetting Gboard by clearing data then force stop it , I'm on this version with no issues maybe a bug in the version you have

K, let's see if we're cooking. I see my keyboard font has changed back to what I had it set at before it decided to misbehave. The keyboard is still staying over text

I'm seeing this too on my Pixel 9 Pro XL but only notice it in Tapatalk so I figured it was an issue on their end. ...

U may be on to something. I tried duplicating the issue in other frequently used apps, but I couldn't.

I recall seeing this issue crop up from time to time. I suspect it has to do with some keyboard app bug that is only showing up in certain apps. Right now, as I was trying to send feedback in Google Maps about an issue, I saw my Gboard come up and hide that part of the feedback screen, so that I couldn't see what I was typing -- I know this didn't happen before. On the other hand, it works fine on other apps like Google Messages and Google Chat. So I would send feedback to the Gboard developers from within the app settings. (It also wouldn't hurt to send feedback in the apps where you're seeing the problem show up in as well.)

Also, in case you're all using Gboard Beta, try reverting to the regular version.

I just sent feedback to Gboard about this.
