I can't make text corrections on DU4 posts on my iPhone because the text I want to correct jumps below the phone's edge [View all]

1. I see a text correction I need to make in a post I made on my phone.

2. I try to move the cursor to the place where I need to make the correction.

3. The text window jumps below the keyboard on my phone and I can't see it anymore, thus I can't correct it.

4. The only way I can correct it is if I count how many characters to blindly backspace until I get to the bad letter I want to correct. Then I can blindly type in that letter, and blindly type in all the letters I backspaced away. This usually doesn't work, and requires more corrections; leading me to quit in frustration and just abandon the post.

5. This never happened in other DU versions.

6 If you look down the comments in this post, you'll see a reply to a comment of mine, stating that it's a known DU4 bug, and it also occurs on tblue37's Kindle: https://democraticunderground.com/100218552649

Has there been any admin acknowledgment of this bug, and have there been any other comments about it?

Is there any other forum where I should post about this?
