Hello Mpajc,


Thanks for posting. As we understand it, you're not able to see the text entry field in the Messages app because the keyboard covers it. Is that right? That's definitely important to clear up, and we'd like to help.


Have you tried to close the Messages app and re-open it? Does that help? Close an app on your iPhone or iPod touch. How about if you Restart your iPhone?


As another possibility, you might test it in both portrait and landscape mode: Rotate the screen on your iPhone or iPod touch. Does the same thing happen in both modes?


If that doesn't help, let us know your iOS version from Settings > General > About.


Kind regards.
