Xbox Remote won't let me type on virtual keyboard.

HarpFlanders · Dec 20, 2021

Every time I need to sign in or enter my email and the virtual keyboard comes up, as soon as I move off the predictive text bar to the keypad I'm instantly moved back to the top left corner on the predicted text bar. I can't sign in to anything, I've done a hard start and all my remotes do the same thing but only when im prompted to the xbox virtual keyboard. SO ANNOYING! And also making my device virtually useless at this point!

Can you please attach a screenshot to help me understand what is happening?

Mine does the same thing. Even changed controllers and the cursor just goes where it wants. No way to type in the password to play. So annoying. Why do I have to enter a password to play on my own Xbox??? It’s basically a paperweight. So very annoying.

I'm have a similar issue! My home button won't work and my Xbox won't let me type anything on the Xbox key board but the YouTube keyboard works!

what type of bug? if you mean the size of the keyboard, it's not a bug it's the ne virtual keyboard.

Not quite the same issue but I have a sporadic issue with the app on iOS not letting me type to my system from my phone for messages or error reports. Tapping on my phone just registers as button inputs instead of bringing up a virtual keyboard. Really
annoying and unfixed bug. Maybe the same for the PC app and regular keyboards?
