Feature Request: Tapping on „Search“ while already on the search tab should focus text input and open keyboard (sh.itjust.works)

Other Lemmy clients such as Voyager and Mlem do this too. It’s a small thing but huge improvement for people who are using search a lot.

Done.

Now when you tap the search tab while it’s already active, firstly it will scroll to the top of the results if it’s not already there, otherwise it will activate the search bar. If it is scrolled down, you can double tap to scroll to the top and activate the search bar. And just like before you can long press the search tab while it’s not selected and it will open the search view and activate the search bar.

I’ve found myself accidentally doing this and it not working, but I never got around to adding this feature until now.

I should hopefully have an update out soon, I have a lot of other fixes and some new features just about ready for a release.

Whoa, that was quick, thanks! Joining TestFlight just for this. Using long press until the update is available, didn’t know this was possible.
