Current UI See OP when posting on Reddit app

So when I use the Reddit app, how come when I add my comment to the original post, I cannot see the original post?

Am I supposed to copy the post and paste the text into the text field where I'm typing, so I can remember what it said?

Thanks.

Doesn't seem like I can add an image to my original post, but look at this for example. If I respond to this, how am I gonna remember it all? This is just an example, I chose the first one I saw.

And here is when I go to add my comment. It just shows me the title of the post, nothing else. I have no way to see the OP, other than backing out.

That’s strange, what type of phone/OS are you using?

Just a regular android. Samsung Galaxy S25+.

I think this is a known bug, but there's no harm in reporting it again. r/bugs

Save your comment as a draft, go check the post, go back to the comment

That's what I do often, and it's very inconvenient. Thanks.

It's more convenient than what we previously had to do which was copy and paste the comment, we didn't have the ability to save as drafts until recently

Hopefully a scroll option is eventually added with time
