Can't reproduce on same build same phone. Do you have a bluetooth keyboard by any chance accidentally connecting to your phone?

[srirambv]

@kylehickinson, There is no Bluetooth keyboard. Bluetooth is off on the device. There is also a report from the community

@srirambv Did you have a version this happened on? Was it before we added clear button fix?

[srirambv]

@kylehickinson this happens on current playstore build.

[kylehickinson]

@srirambv Will continue looking into it but if you can verify it still happens on 1.14 that'd be good

[kylehickinson]

Also to the best of your memory, do you remember if you tested this with passcode enabled? or done anything related to the SyncPair screen or find in page?

[srirambv]

No this happens on just clean install no sync/passcode screens ever touched.

This is my posting. With the changes made, it got a little better. Easiest way to circumvent it is to close the Brave task and reopen.
