Please bring back the ability to disable pull up refresh. So many times I have lost form data due to scrolling too fast or pinching to zoom. It’s so frustrating. Pull to refresh is great, but please give me the option.
I like how I can pull the page down on my phone to refresh it, but it's driving me insane when it refreshes as I'm zooming out.
A couple of use cases where this is a real annoyance:
1. My bank. When I'm logging in, I tap on the username box and the view zooms in. After I'm logged in, I want to zoom out to see the whole page (the desktop view is much better than the mobile view). 9 out of 10 times, the page then refreshes and I get logged out.
2. Making posts on a forum. When I tap on the new message textarea, it zooms in a little. After I've written my post, I want to read all of it, so I zoom out so I don't have to scroll sideways. 9 times out of 10 the page then refreshes and I lose everything I've written.
The pull down to refresh feature doesn’t work very well. Sometimes I end up refreshing the page unintentionally which can be very unproductive. I’d like the option to disable this ‘feature’. More settings is always better. Making a setting and then getting rid of it is not cool. The mobile app should have an about:config with a whole bunch of settings like the desktop version.
