Thanks for using Ionic, we will look into this.

Just tried upgrading to 3.5.3: Unfortunately, this regression still exists in 3.5.3

Problem for me in 3.5.2 as well.

The same in version 3.6.0

[lostdev]

Is there a recommended work-around for this?

[Rudimo]

@lostdev Nothing helps. Previously, the alerts were normal.

[lostdev]

@Rudimo have you attempted re-focusing the input manually once the modal is displayed?

[Rudimo]

@lostdev No. It seems to me it will not help.

@jgw96 Any update on this issue? I have a work-around for my most important screens but this issue is occurring across the board for me, and the work-around isn't ideal.

Thank you!
