Possible bug? Highlight option instead of inserting cursor
in progress
dannnn
I have a list and wherever I click on the list, my cursor will be placed there. This allows me to add characters and add to my list. When I switch tabs on the iPhone (so Taskade is still in the background running), and I come back to the app, when I go to click my cursor somewhere on the list, it selects the full row in highlight mode, which becomes very frustrating and did not used to do this. I am wondering if this is a bug that has been overlooked, but I like to have Taskade in the background for those impromptu tasks I like to track and each time, I am having to click the tick to cancel highlight mode, in order to add characters.

Thank you for the detailed reproduction steps — the iPhone background/foreground switch triggering a highlight mode instead of cursor placement is a clear and specific bug. That kind of context switch causing an editor state issue is exactly the sort of edge case that slips through.
We have been actively improving mobile touch interactions and List View behavior (v6.101.0 brought mobile-optimized list view with better touch handling), but this specific tap-to-cursor regression on iOS after a tab switch sounds like a distinct issue. Could you confirm which iOS version and Taskade app version you are on? Does it happen in the browser as well, or only in the native app? The more we can narrow down the trigger, the faster the fix lands. Your report is noted and we appreciate the clear steps to reproduce.
