Functional issue on iPad's for adding children/spouses/parents
Device Info: iPad Pro 1st Gen, 12.9in, iPadOS 16
(Reference photo below)
One functionality issue that occurs on iPad's occurs on the popup for adding a child, a spouse(s), or parents. Note, this issue only occurs when using the software (on-screen) keyboard.
There are times when I don't want to go to my computer or get my wireless keyboard setup for my iPad just to do some quick, 10-20 minute research and adding information. For example, when adding children and I add their birth and death dates and places, the software keyboard obscures those boxes for me to view what I'm adding. So I attempt to scroll down to see those boxes (with the software keyboard still up), but when I do scroll, the website returns to the view that I show in the image below. It makes it almost impossible to view what I'm typing, and especially is a problem when I try to select and standardize a date or place.
I have to go through the process of closing the software keyboard (after adding names), tapping the birth date or place or death date or place boxes, have the keyboard pop back up (which then obscures my vision of those boxes), nearly blindly type in information, and cannot select a standardized date or place (because if I close the keyboard, then the list of standardized places/dates will disappear).
It doesn't matter if I scroll in the popup area or outside of the popup area, the results are still the same, shown in the picture below.
I hope this outlines the problem that I have when adding information with the software keyboard on an iPad. If I have a wireless keyboard, everything is just fine.
The desired solution would be so that I can scroll so I can see the birth/death date/place boxes even with the software keyboard opened.
Much thanks!

Just noticed the change, and it is so much better! Thank you guys very much for fixing this minor functionality issue! (Sorry that I posted the same question twice; when I posted the bug the first time, I thought that the post didn’t go through properly, then when I posted another one the second time, I realized I was being told my post was being reviewed.)
