Highlighted text search result appears under keyboard toolbar

On the screenshot I'm searching in raw log of a github actions run. As you can see, current search result that is highlighted appears right above the keyboard and behind the app's custom toolbar instead instead of being above the toolbar.

This looks like an OS layout bug in the in-page log search UI.

The highlighted match is being scrolled into view without accounting for the app’s bottom search toolbar / keyboard overlay, so the selected result ends up underneath that floating control instead of above it.

A likely cause is that the app is using something like:

a raw scrollRectToVisible

scrollRangeToVisible

or DOM/text search scroll behavior

without subtracting the height of:

the on-screen keyboard, and

the custom search/navigation toolbar.

So the “visible area” used for scrolling is larger than the actually unobscured area.

Expected behavior:
When moving between search matches, the selected result should be positioned within the unobstructed viewport, above the toolbar.

Likely fix:
Adjust the search scroll target using the effective visible content inset / safe area + accessory toolbar height, or add extra bottom padding while search mode is active.

Workaround:
None obvious from the user side besides dismissing the keyboard or toolbar temporarily.

on iPad it's even worse - the highlighted result is behind the keyboard:

This might be an app issue, does scrolling up on the page not work?

Scrolling works of course, but default search behavior is incorrect - bad UX

Might need to send the developer of it a message hahahha, that seems internal app and not an OS problem. Have you tried different apps?
