Screenshot When I go into fullscreen on Safari on iPad and scroll down 3 times, a popup shows up informing me that "this website maybe wants to trick me with fake keyboard" (see attachment with screenshot) and gives me two options – stay in or exit fullscreen. If I stay, popup reappears after next 3 scrolls down. I reduced my code base to minimum (
https://codepen.io/dakur/pen/xxbYQOp
), there is nothing like <input> or something and still it appears. See it here:
https://codepen.io/dakur/full/xxbYQOp
This is super annoying as we use something we call presentantion mode (call fullscreen API and hide our website navigation) to presentate long texts easily – which is disturbed with this popup each 3 scrolls.

testcase I need to swipe many more times than 3 times (maybe 20 times?) but I'm able to reproduce on ipadOS 27 The testcase is actually really simple, just put a page in fullscreen and swipe many times.

I marked
bug 206853
and
bug 267743
as duplicate of these bugs. Specifically,
bug 267743
has a PR attached to disable that behavior and Apple commented it is an intended phishing protection against fake keyboards:
https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/pull/22953
So I'm not sure we can actually fix this bug.
