I originally created this as a bug. May someone please fix this and the error 
itself?
Thanks :)

Changing it to a bug was easy - fixing it won't be... The point is that the 
page is reloaded on item updates, and the browsers behave differently - mobile 
Safari on the iPhone actually works fine, while PC browers show the problem you 
describe. I don't see a way how to fix this - so I would opt to close this 
issue as "won't fix", if you agree.

I'm fine with this. However, fixing this in the specific apps (WP8, Android, 
iPhone) should be possible and would be a great step for UX.

So the current work around is to keep pages from filling more than the screen.

You may of course close this as "won't fix".

Hm, I assumed, you were only talking about the Classic UI. Can you confirm that 
the same problem exists for the native apps? If yes, we could check if it can 
be adressed in them.

I can confirm that this problem exists for HABDroid for the current release. I 
have an older Version of HABDroid on my Tablet, where the problem does not 
exist.

Victor, can you look into that? If it once worked, it should hopefully possible 
to fix it for HABDroid.

Thanks to Victor, I just tested his current build and it's perfectly fine.

Great, so I will close the issue as it is fixed for HABDroid and won't be 
possible to change on the Classic UI.
If you feel that it should be addressed in any other UI, you might want to open 
another dedicated issue.
