- gregoriol 4y agoThis is even more hidden than the one in the share screen
- sosborn 4y agoMore hidden maybe, but definitely more logical.
- Someone1234 4y agoMore logical to use a textbox typically reserved for navigating away from the current page, to instead search that page?
- gregoriol 4y agoThanks, was going to answer the same: nor the "address" text field nor the "share" button indicate actions to be performed inside the page; the logical idea is that first one is to go to another site, the second one is to transfer the current page to another app/person I have to admit I don't see where to put the "search inside the page" feature, definitely some ux trick to be found
- makeitdouble 4y agoThe worst part of this is it’s the last item in the autocomplete list, and will often be under the keyboard, off screen until we scroll to it. It also hides the current page behind the list of course. All in all, text selection and search is still such a second class experience on iOS.
