Description

Steps to reproduce
  1. Click on Share 3 dots with two lines between them
  2. Tap in "Type a name and press enter" box"
Expected behaviour

Window should scroll (or at least you should be able to manually scroll) so you can see what your typing and the list of suggestions as they appear.

Actual behaviour

The keyboard appears over the text feild masking both what your typing and suggestions nextcloud brings. This stops you tapping on the suggestion to add those people as shares. You can't scroll manual.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Share menu flow on the iOS app, using the “Type a name and press enter” field on the reported device and OS context. Check whether the keyboard obscures the typed text and suggestions or prevents scrolling; done means the field and suggestions remain visible or can be reached while the keyboard is open.
