Hi team,
We’ve been migrating merchants from our old App Bridge POS Link tile to our new POS UI Extension tile. We’ve received a handful of reports from merchants that have described our new tile as “glitchy” which at first I brushed off, but in playing around with it more, I believe I understand what they’re talking about.
With the old tile, all typing / searching was done in the ResourcePicker. When I play around with this and type quickly, there is no unexpected behavior.
With POS UI Extensions, the SearchBar component appears to be a native iOS component and, coupled with whatever product search behavior is happening, even in the native Shopify POS there appears to be some glitchiness related to the product search.
Here are 2 examples videos:
If I go to the iOS settings and turn off auto correct and predictive text, it seems to improve based on my testing. Are these settings you can turn on by default? I believe it’d help improve the user experience.
Thanks!
