P: Share to Instagram Keyboard/buttons don’t work when iPad is in landscape view

I'm on an iPad Air running iOS 15 and the most recent version of Lightroom as of posting.

 

When I'm in landscape view on the iPad and go to the share sheet to share a photo to Instagram, I can type in the message box, but then the OK and Share buttons don't work unless I switch the iPad to portrait view.

It can manifest as the lack of keyboard or the disabled button we've found.

Hi @Rikk Flohr: Photography , I was doing some testing of my own, and noticed a similar but different behavior (maybe related to the same underlying issue?) - When I am in Landscape mode choose to Share to Instagram, the on-display keyboard doesn't appear and I can't type in a message. Rotating to Portrait triggers the keyboard to appear, and rotating back to Landscape, the keyboard remains visible and I can proceed.

 

LR 7.1.1 on iPad Pro 11" NTXT2LL/A, iOS 15.2.1.

 

After choosing to share to Instagram (no keyboard):

Rotate to Portrait and the keyboard appears:

Rotate back to Landscape and the keyboard remains on screen:

Workaround: Briefly rotate your iPad to Portrait and then back to Landscape

I was not able to replicate this on an iPad Pro Ver 4. 

 

If you rotate Landscape to Portrait and the back to Landscape do the buttons become active?

Yes, the buttons become active if I do that.
