Bugs on Android Mobile with AI Prompts

Hi,

the latest Android version 1.13.29 has still some issues:

1. Custom prompt cannot be entered.


What is working?

I open Memex mobile and select some of my saved entries.
Then, I press on Ask.
I can see my synced prompts. Clicking on a saved/synced prompt works as expected.

What is not working?

I click into the prompt field. My keyboard appears.
The keyboard covers the whole prompt field. I cannot see what i've entered.

Interestingly, if i press some letter, e.g. "a" and minimize my keyboard, the letter "a" is visible.
Contrary, if i press e.g. "ab" and minimize the keyboard, only the last letter "b" is in the prompt field.

In summary, I cannot simply write a custom prompt because the prompt field is invisible once the keyboard appears. If I type me prompt "blindly", only the last letter is saved in the prompt field.

Workaround:

I can write my custom prompt in any other app and copy it.
Then I can go to Memex Mobile's promt and "paste" the prompt.
Pressing on the lightning executes the prompt.

2. Using Android's Share Fuction -> Ask AI -> only shows the default prompts

What is working?

I use my Browser to visit some website. Then I press on "share -> memex mobile".
Memex Mobile opens, and I go to "AI".

If i press on the prompt field, my keyboard gets visible AND I can see the prompt field as expected.
I can write my prompt.

What is not working? (1/2)

After writing the prompt as described above, I cannot execute the prompt.
Pressing enter on the keyboard inserts a new line.
Pressing on the lightning icon (as described above when not using the share function) does not execute the prompt.

What is not working? (2/2)

Same as above:
I use my Browser to visit some website. Then I press on "share -> memex mobile".
Memex Mobile opens, and I go to "AI".
On this screen, there are only the "default prompts" available ("Summarize this for me", ...). No synced prompts.

    I'll have a look at it tomorrow.
    Can you send me a screenshot of when it overlaps the text field?

    Btw do you see the new "Resize" button? Drag it up and down and you may have more space.

      The resize button does not seem to work in my device.
      FYI: I've send you a screen recording via email yesterday.

        ok seen the video and will have a closer look at it today!
        When you say "resize" does not work, have you tried holding and moving it and also does not work?

          Yes, I tried to hold and move but nothing happens.
          It feels like there is no interaction possible with this button.
          The button is simply not triggered/dragable/moveable.

              Nice. On the latest Android version, my keyboard still overlaps the AI prompt field. However, the resize button is now working. Increasing the size makes both the keyboard and the prompt field visible.

              It would be cool if the app could remember the size of the prompt. Currently, I have to resize the prompt every time I want to use it.

              Also, I can now enter the prompt as I like. The letters I type are used as input as expected. There is also a new "submit" button which can be used to submit custom prompts.

              Thanks for the fixes.

              Btw, 2) Using Android's Share Function -> Ask AI -> only shows the default prompts is still not fixed. The share function seems to use a different "View". The prompts are not synced. The prompt AI field looks different, e.g., I cannot enter custom prompts there (like it was before these fixes).

              Sometimes, I want to summarize a page on my browser. I share it with memex, but then, I cannot use the AI (besides the default prompts). I need to close the page, open memex from the home screen again, and then I can use the AI (due to the fixes above). It would be nice if the sharing page used the same prompt field like the regular memex.
