Pin lock status hidden beneath keyboard #22

Open iammexan opened 4 years ago

iammexan commented 4 years ago

Long pressing to lock/unlock pin gives a pop-up "lock/unlock pins". This pop-up is shown beneath the keyboard so that with the keyboard open, the pop-up can't be seen and there's no other visual feedback. Maybe you can show a little padlock sign too to indicate locked status. Also the pop-up is really small, which makes it a bit hard to find and the text almost overflows the frame. Aesthetic and accessible improvement may be required.

Edit : I noticed it's also the same case for snooze pop-up that says "show in x h".

First, I'm sorry for my late response.

These Toast-Messeges are provided by the android system and should work fine on all android devices. Also, they should be visible above the keyboard. Your description indicates a problem with your keyboard-app or your manufacturer's android implementation. It would help greatly if you could specify your android version, device, manufacturer and maybe a screenshot of the issue. If you are using a third-party keyboard-app you can try to switch to the default one which should respect Toast-Messages. Alternatively, try Gboard (by Google from Google Play Store) or AnySoftKeyboard (from F-Droid Store) which both work for me.

This is how these messages should look like: image

No problem. I am also sorry for late reply.

I am using Gboard by default and also tried Simple keyboard from f-droid. The problem still persists. I guess this might be my manufacturers' implementation issue. 😕

Anyway, please consider the padlock icon idea...thanks Screenshot_2019-12-09-13-59-52-16
