for some time now I frequently cannot enter anything in the search bar of firefox focus on my ipad air 5, and have to close and reopen firefox focus to be able to enter info. Now I cannot enter info no matter what I do, I have deleted and reloaded firefox focus, I have shut down my ipad and rebooted. Nothing works. When I touch the bar to start entering info, a blue line sometimes will flash briefly, but if does, it immediately goes out.

Please help me resolve the following problem: When using a physical keyboard attached to iPad, when I tap in the Search bar of Firefox Focus, I am unable to enter any text because the keyboard focus does not remain in the search bar. I have found the following workarounds: If the browser has a page already loaded, I need to tap the Delete icon in Firefox Focus in order to clear the page. Or, if I temporarily detach my physical keyboard, then I can use the Search bar as expected. After doing either of these things, the Search bar works properly. (Note: The problem described above seems to have started happening with iPadOS 26. It did not occur in iOS 18). Thank you for your assistance.
