Environments observed

App version: 7.8.2 (5826)
OS versions: iOS 18.6.2
Device model: iPhone 12 Pro Max
Device language: EN

Engineering Notes

A couple of things we could try:
Option 1: Try checking to see if the navigation bar is hidden before allowing tooltips to present
Option 2: Upon article appearance, disable web view (webView.isUserInteractionEnabled = false) if needsTooltips == true. Enable web view after tooltips have shown, or if the user has navigated away.

Test Notes

Testable in 7.8.3. We decided to suppress tooltips if the navigation bar is hidden (because in that case there is nothing for the tooltip to point to). Fresh install, repeat reproduction steps and ensure article tooltips do not present in this situation. Visiting another article without immediately scrolling (that is, keeping the navigation bar on screen) should then allow tooltips to present.
