Description

Expected behavior

The 'Site Title' should be fully visible and not obscured by any UI elements during preview or after refreshing the page.

Actual behavior

Step 5: The 'Customize' bar overlaps with the 'Site Title' during the preview.
Step 6: After refreshing the page, the 'Customize' bar continues to overlap with the 'Site Title'.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

Note: This issue seems to be related to the onboarding UI for new sites

  1. Press the “Add new” button.
  2. Select the blog post option.
  3. Add any text or media.
  4. Select the triple dot icon in the upper right.
  5. Select ‘Preview’.
  6. Tap the refresh button in the upper right.

Notes

After clicking the 'Customize' button and returning to the app, the button changes color to black, making it difficult to see against the background.

Tested on [device], Android [version], JPAndroid / WPAndroid [version]

Galaxy S21 5G, Android 15, JPAndroid / WPAndroid 25.2.1 (1444)

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue through Add new, the blog post option, the editor’s triple-dot menu, Preview, and refresh on the reported Android setup. Trace the onboarding preview UI and its refreshed state; done means the Customize bar no longer obscures the Site Title and remains visibly distinct after returning to the app.
