Facebook app for iOS: hashtag suggestions are not accessible from the Edit Caption option of any photo

 iOS 14.0.1

Facebook app for iOS (version 291.0)

Date: 10/15/2020

Description:

Here is a minor problem that I keep having with the Facebook app (version 291.0) for iOS. When the user edits the caption of any photo, suggested hashtags appear after entering in the "#" character.

None of the suggested hashtags appear to work. The user can't select them.

Here's a video of what I mean:

.@Facebook .@schrep - Minor (but noticeable) bug with the Facebook iOS app. You can’t select any of the auto-suggested hashtags when edit captions on photos.

What’s the point, as it makes editing the caption, and using hashtags, a chore? pic.twitter.com/fBLEtQFuR8

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Select any of your uploaded photos

2. Select the "Edit Caption" feature 

3. Enter in the "#" and any word to see the suggested hashtags

4. Select any suggested hashtag

Result: With the current version of the Facebook iOS app (version 291.0) the user can not select any of the suggested hashtags

Expected: The suggested hashtags offered by the Facebook iOS when editing a caption of a video should be accessible 

Select any photo that you have previously uploaded. Select the option in the upper right...

Select the "Edit Caption" option...

Enter in a "#" in the caption...

Try to select any of the suggested hashtags...

I can't select any of the suggested hashtags.
