Skip to main content

I have a bottom nav that I want to stay sticky at the bottom of the screen. I have content that is longer than the phone itself, and I want it to scroll down just like you would scroll on Facebook, IG, etc. The problem is the bottom nav IS sticky, but it is covering some of the content I want to show. I don’t know why this is happening since I’ve never experienced this before. 

I think, You can try adding padding-bottom equal to the height of the fixed nav, then setting box-sizing: border-box to make sure the space was respected without overflow. Give that a try and see if it helps your content show properly!

I had the same issue recently while working on a layout for a project involving breakfast catering London packages


Hey ​@Carli Fast ! This issue usually happens when the vertical constraints of your bottom nav aren’t set correctly. Even if you've set it as sticky or fixed in the prototype tab, Figma often applies a top constraint by default.

To fix this, make sure your bottom nav has its vertical constraint set to "bottom". Once that's done, the sticky/fixed behavior should work as expected without covering your content. Hope this helps!
