Steps to reproduce

1. Open Nextcloud on iOS
2. Open a text file (*.txt, *.md, *.sh but not a *.doc or *.docx)
3. See the viewer toolbar unusable on the side

Expected behaviour

The viewer toolbar should be further away from the edge or higher so that we can use the side buttons.

Actual behaviour

The viewer toolbar is too close to the edge or sitting too low and is unusable on either sides of the display.

Reasoning or why should it be changed/implemented?

Currently the buttons are very hard to get and most of the time it triggers Siri, so changing the placement of that viewer toolbar is of necessity.

Environment data

iOS version: iOS 26.6

Nextcloud iOS app version: v34.1.1.2

Server operating system: Debian Trixie arm64

Web server: nginx

Database: Postgresql

PHP version: 8.5

Nextcloud version: v34.0.2

Pls use the version in TestFlight, should be fixed.

[sjg2203]

On the TestFlight build 34.1.3 the H1 on my second screenshot is a couple pixels away from the edge. I agree the X on the right is better placed.

[marinofaggiana]

It's a webview, we can't do anything about that.

[sjg2203]

So this poorly placed icon is coming from the web editor served by the server or the Text app, correct?
Should I open this issue in the server repo or the text repo? And can the maintainers adjust the placement? At the moment the icon sits extremely close to the top-left edge on iOS, which makes it hard to reach and doesn’t align with accessibility or reachability guidelines.
