Keyboard disappear in Form fields. Is there a reason why my iphone keypad wont stay up to enter data into a field? It rolls up the screen when I place the curser into the field for a brief moment then rolls back down again? I have shut the app down, synced, made a useless edit and then saved to see if that helped but nothing seems to help. Makes it difficult (unable) to enter/edit data in a form field. Thanks in advance.

I’m not able to reproduce this.

What OS version and device type are you using?

The first thing you’ll want to try is updating your device to the latest OS version available.

If that doesn’t resolve the issue you can also try running your app in Mobile Safari as a workaround.

Its seems to have corrected itself.

My keyboard disappears irregularly on a couple of my devices. It opens but closes before text entry can be completed. It seems to be worse when the phone is held horizontally. Phone is Motorola Droid Turbo running Android 6.0.1. My Samsung Tab 2 is running Android 7.0

The problem still occurs very often!!!

I have the same issue.

While searching for a solution for this, I found your post.

I did a lot of testing and found out that it happens when two conditions are met:

1. It happens only on mobile devices (not on a computer).
2. It happens if I am filling out the form for a Parent table, while the app is still saving a previous record from this table.

I think this problem occurs because I start a new form from the Parent table while it is still saving the previous record.

So the solution is to wait until the save is finished.

I know your query was posted many years ago, so it's very likely that it won't help you, but I'm posting it because it might help someone else.
