On Apollo you could tap the area just below the FaceID sensor and it would zip you straight back to the top of whatever you were scrolling. This would be useful to have again!

I believe Alex (the dev) has said that this is a limitation of PWAs and therefore can’t be done. Probably, much like he doesn’t have control over the color of the status bar (see light mode status bar transparency issues), he likely doesn’t receive any info about taps in that area.

Using standard Lemmy as a fullscreen app shows the area pretty well - that black bar at the top is probably in OS control and not the web browser:

Edit: yeah, he explicitly says that in one of the GitHub requests :(
