Question:

When trying to open status bar by dragging down from the top of the screen while using Samsung Internet, webpage is unintentionally scrolling.

 

Answer:

To resolve the issue of unintended webpage scrolling when opening the status bar by dragging down from the top of the screen while using Samsung Internet, you can disable the 'Hide status bar' option in the settings. This feature was introduced to get more screen space while browsing, but may cause some inconvenience due to structural restrictions. Samsung is working on improvements to address such issues.

 

Terms:

Status Bar - A menu bar displayed at the top of the screen showing notifications, time, battery life, etc.

Dragging Down - The action of swiping or sliding your finger downwards on the screen.

Samsung Internet - The default web browser pre-installed on Samsung devices.

Scroll - The action of moving up or down a webpage to view its contents.

Structural Restrictions - Limitations imposed by the design or layout of a device or software.

Turn Hide status bar off - Deactivating the 'Hide status bar' feature to prevent it from hiding the status bar while browsing.
