Android 15 (API 35) edge-to-edge causes input field shittiness #25

Open

Description

@yawnoc

On API level 35+ (where edge-to-edge is enforced):

  • Spawning the soft keyboard obscures the EditText (input field).
  • Typing in the EditText does not automatically scroll it into view.

    Branch input-scroll-attempt-2025-12-25 applies two changes:

    1. a5b16d6: Replaces android:fitsSystemWindows="true" with setOnApplyWindowInsetsListener logic explicitly accounting for WindowInsetsCompat.Type.ime()
    2. 6d6133c: Explicitly sets android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"

    This demonstrates that, even if the solution given by Blo is applied, we still don't get the expected behaviour (EditText staying within view) on API level 35+.

    Screw you, Google.
