Related: About this forumI can't make text corrections on DU4 posts on my iPhone because the text I want to correct jumps below the phone's edge
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?

(6,265 posts)But I use a laptop or desktop to write and correct my words of 'wisdom' (aka verbal dribble).
Edge on Windows 11 picks up every misspelled word and grammatical error. Quite useful.
Can you please tell me:
1) Which DU Mode are you using? (Default, Night, or Skinner)
2) Do you hold your phone horizontally or vertically?
