Hi all. Has anyone solved the issue where the keyboard covers the input text?
I know there are two ways to “fix” it, but both are not acceptable for me:
1. Set a fixed height for the text field — but I want to show all text on screen.
2. Remove .verticalScroll(rememberScrollState()) - needs full text to remain visible.
Any ideas? See the video.

For Activity added:

android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"

Compose:

Scaffold(modifier = Modifier.fillMaxSize()) { innerPadding ->
    Column(
        modifier = Modifier
            .fillMaxSize()
            .padding(innerPadding)
            .verticalScroll(rememberScrollState())
    ) {
        Text("Welcome!", style = MaterialTheme.typography.bodyLarge)

        Text("Please add description!", style = MaterialTheme.typography.bodyLarge)

        var text by remember { mutableStateOf("") }

        TextField(
            value = text,
            onValueChange = {
                text = it
            },
            modifier = Modifier
                .fillMaxWidth()
                .imePadding(),
            singleLine = false
        )

        Text("This will be some checkbox!", style = MaterialTheme.typography.bodyLarge)
        Text("Happy New YEAR!", style = MaterialTheme.typography.bodyLarge)
    }
}

Just use the .imePadding() modifier ?

[Vilgot Fredenberg]

You should consume insets (e.g. Modifier.imePadding()) instead of setting android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"

@Tolriq @Vilgot Fredenberg Thanks. Unfortunately, your suggestions didn’t work, issue is still the same :(

[Vilgot Fredenberg]

You're using the old textfield which contains an internal vertical scrollbar. Try switching to the newer text field

[Vilgot Fredenberg]

Scaffold { innerPadding ->
    Column(
        modifier = Modifier
            .padding(innerPadding)
            .imePadding()
            .verticalScroll(rememberScrollState())
    ) {
        Text("Welcome!", style = MaterialTheme.typography.bodyLarge)

        Text("Please add description!", style = MaterialTheme.typography.bodyLarge)

        val state = rememberTextFieldState()
        TextField(state, Modifier.fillMaxWidth())

        Text("This will be some checkbox!", style = MaterialTheme.typography.bodyLarge)
        Text("Happy New YEAR!", style = MaterialTheme.typography.bodyLarge)
    }
}
