It is useless (we are normal adults and perfectly capable of moving to top of page using native means) and annoyingly gets into way.

Thanks,

Hi @waclawek.jan, I assume you refer to this blue arrow at the bottom of the mobile screen - correct?

Personally, I find it quite useful especially for longer threads. Also, for me it only triggers when I press it and not when accidentally holding it down. 
Do you have a concrete use case where it is not working as expected? If there is a bug, we will of course look into it. Otherwise, this might be a topic of personal preferences to be honest.  

Best,
Amelie

Hi @Amelie ACKERMANN ,

Yes, the blue arrow.

It tends to overlap quite a significant portion of the "Reply" button, when writing a reply. It may be my particular phone, nonetheless it's there.

> I find it quite useful especially for longer thread

Browsers have native methods to move quickly even in longer threads - most nontrivial pages are too long to fit onto one screenful on mobil phones, so this is quite a vital feature of the browser anywa -  so this is simply redundant.

I don't say this is a pressing issue, but I suggest to get rid of it after the more acute problems are solved.
