I want to Re-arrange the headings in the Outline Panel.
Things I have tried
I tried search for heading outline in this forum and Reddit.
I updated to the latest Obsidian v1.7.5 for Android 14 and start fresh with no plugins installed. I then create a note and add some headings. I try to move a heading in the Outline Panel and doesn’t work. It use to work.
I also search through the Obsidian settings to see if there is a new setting to might disable the re-arrange headings and didn’t find any.
Anyone know if this re-arrange headings in outline for Android is removed?
I have two androids, and this is happening too, with only one device (Samsung Note 10 Lite), even though it is the same Obsidian version (1.6.3) on both.
On Samsung A32 is working fine.
• Delete all plugins
• Create an empty vault
• Uninstall and install again
• Delete cache
• Delete data
• Install old versions
Android WebView, on both Note 10 Lite and A32 Android are in the version 126.0.6478.71: https://imgur.com/a/BjibSDe
I noticed that it started when I updated the Note 10 Lite in February. Oddly, this didn’t happen with the A32, even with the most recent update in April.
At first I thought that it was a bug, but I’m guessing that is something with Android.
I noticed that another plugin that require Drag and Drop stopped working too (Outliner).
Dragging and Dropping rows and columns on tables works, though.
I will create a new post on this matter instead of hijacking this one since they use iPhone.
Yes.
I I first deactivated my plugins and themes in my main vault. No changes.
I created a new vault and tried dragging blank notes and notes with content (text). It doesn’t work.
I cleared the app cache. No change.
I uninstalled and reinstalled, repeated the first and second test. No change.
I tried changing the app’s file path and creating a new vault. No results.
Expected result
Drag my notes manually.
Actual result
When trying to drag, it just opens the context menu.

Additional information
I installed the app on another phone, and the drag function works fine. I didn’t try to install any plugins.
Same here, in previous versions of Obsidian v.1.6.7, dragging wasn’t a problem. Dragging on mobile (phone in my case) suddenly stopped working.
Tested without CSS, plugins and themes on a default vault.

Also re-installing Obsidian version: 1.6.7 doesn’t resolve the issue.
I always download Obsidian for mobile from official source, https://obsidian.md/
Notes
I don’t know how dragging is implemented in Obsidian mobile, however there are different places where dragging on mobile is still possible, like:
dragging table rows/ columns works
dragging properties rows works
So, dragging isn’t broken everywhere, only for files and folders in the folder tree and trees sharing the same code, like for example, the outliner (again, dragging isn’t possible)
It was just coincidence. It just stops working.
I bought a tablet, S9 Ultra, and it was not working. I checked on Note 10 Lite and in an A32 and it stopped working on them too.
I even tested on my Obsidian clones that are still on 1.6.3 and 1.6.7, I have them because I have to update them manually and I won’t do that until I’m confident that the new version of Obsidian won’t break anything, and… it stopped working on them too. (what?)
I just don’t know what is happening anymore, but I suspect that is something from the Android OS.

The function of dragging notes manually (with your finger) suddenly stopped working in Obsidian version 1.7.5 (Android). The context menu still works.
Steps to reproduce: Just touch the notes and immediately try to drag them.
Did you follow the troubleshooting guide? [Yes]
I created a new fresh made vault.
I cleared the app cache. No change.
I uninstalled and reinstalled, repeated the first and second test. No change.
Trying to drag my notes from files or headings from outliner, manually, nothing happens at all, the actual result:
When trying to tap, hold and drag files or headings on outliner, it just opens the context menu, or nothing happens at all.

I’m having the same problem now, although it worked recently. My android updated itself recently, and it may have stopped working then. I’m using 1.7.6
