iPad External Keyboard “Predictive” Toolbar Blocking App bottomBar
Hi, when using a text field with an external keyboard on iPad & SwiftUI, the iPadOS external keyboard toolbar pops up and also displays a toolbar-like item under it, spanning the entire width of the iPad screen, blocking any existing .bottomBar items. I’m using swift playgrounds specifically, but the issue persists on a testflight of the app, so I don’t think that’s a contributing factor. Also, the animation for the bar makes it seem like it’s an overlay of sorts, instead of just cutting off the view, and I’m certain the issue is to do with the “predictive” typing bar, since the user disabling it in their iPad’s keyboard settings resolves the issue. If anyone’s faced the same issue or knows a fix to get rid of the background bar it presents, please let me know, thanks! Screenshot from Swift Playgrounds’ “Date Planner” example app, showing the white bar at the bottom spanning the entire width of the screen, under the keyboard’s “predictive” toolbar:
