Drag-and-Drop Not Working on Samsung Galaxy Fold (Obsidian)

Steps to reproduce

Bug Report: Drag-and-Drop Not Working on Samsung Galaxy Fold (Obsidian)

On Samsung Galaxy Fold devices, file and folder relocation via drag-and-drop in Obsidian does not work. I have tested both touch input and a Bluetooth mouse, and in both cases, drag-and-drop fails to move files or folders within the app.

I have tried the following troubleshooting steps:

  • Disabled all community plugins
  • Logged out of my Obsidian account
  • Created new vaults
  • Reinstalled Obsidian
  • Cleared cache and app data
  • Rebooted the device multiple times

Despite trying every method I could think of over the past few weeks, the issue persists. I recently confirmed that drag-and-drop works normally on an older Galaxy Note device with latest obsidian, so I suspect the issue is specific to Galaxy Fold models.

Please investigate this compatibility issue.

After several tests, I am confident that this issue is caused by the WebView version.

  • I installed an older version of Obsidian on the latest Galaxy Z Fold, but the same problem occurs.

  • The Galaxy phone where drag-and-drop works fine likely has an older WebView version, around version 130.

In other words, the latest WebView version causes issues with drag-and-drop, making it difficult to use Obsidian properly.
