Disable Auto-Scroll Behavior During Response Completion
complete
Mohammed Hammad (محمد حماد)
Hi,
I wanted to share feedback regarding an issue I’ve been facing while using Marlin apk. When I ask a question and the response starts loading, I often begin reading it as it’s being generated. However, once the response is fully written, the interface auto-scrolls to the bottom of the response.
This makes it difficult to stay focused on the section I'm reading, especially with longer responses. It would be great if you could implement a feature to disable auto-scrolling or perhaps add a scroll lock function so users can manually control where they’re reading without interruptions.
Thank you for taking the time to consider this, and I appreciate the continued improvements you’re making to the platform!
Best regards,

Thanks a lot for the feedback—it really helped! We’ve added a new setting to disable auto-scroll. It’s turned off by default, so you can enable it anytime if you prefer that behavior. The update rolled out a few days ago (v5.4.21) (took a bit longer with the Play Store and App Store approvals). Hope this makes the experience smoother—let us know if it works better for you!

It's annoying when I want to backread my chat or type in advance while reading but then instantly go to bottom whenever it finished, is it possible to disable that or find another alternative?

[android] Stop scroll behavior when a message is generating

Currently as a message generates, it continues to scroll the screen down with it. There's also no way to hold the screen and stop the scroll(which usually works in other apps). The best UX would be to keep the user on the starting of the message.
Thanks!
