Ebay Community Search on android. | Technical Issues

When I try to use the search field on the Ebay Community Pages (and only those pages) using android devices it behaves strangely and tries to refresh the field/page with every character typed, tested this on two Samsung tablets with Chrome and the Samsung browser also my Samsung A14 phone and an older Lenovo tablet. It makes the search of the community on android impossible. If I go to a Win 11 PC and Chrome I can see what is happening, as you type into the search field a box appears under the search field which updates with each character typed giving items found for what you have typed so far - see attached screen shot. This works on my PC's browser but totally kills the Community search on any of my Android devices. I don't know when this new search "feature" was introduced but I suspect it wasn't tested on all platforms. Can it be sorted?
