On http://raosrestaurants.com/, the swipe to refresh triggers when it isn't supposed to (see gif below; very easy to reproduce on my device). Possibly related to #638. I've had similar issues on a handful of other sites also. I don't have a way to reproduce the bug on the other sites, but what I can say is that in every instance, the address bar was hidden.

Not sure if it matters, but I would also like to note that the other sites I mentioned, unlike raosrestaurants.com, did not render themselves to fill the WebView and had room to scroll up and down [in the WebView] when the unwanted refresh happened; the bug only happened one time on each site and could not be reproduced. Perhaps a check to see if the address bar is fully docked would fix, or at least mitigate, this issue.

I really don't think this is relevant, but if you wanted to know which other sites I had issues on, I will list them below. Please note that it is very hard to reproduce on these sites, and likely has nothing to do with the sites themselves:
https://portal.311.nyc.gov/
https://www.chess.com/
https://www.5dimes.eu
http://cooper.edu/


Edit:

I found two more examples of sites where this bug is easy to reproduce:

reddit.com

  • Go to reddit.com
  • Wait for the site to lose focus, and for the overlay to appear with the bottom dialog asking whether to continue in the Reddit app or with the browser.

linkedin.com

Both of these examples seem to distill themselves to the base case we saw on raosrestaurants.com (i.e. they fill the WebView)
