Action Performed:

1. Open emoji picker & keep scrolling.
2. Observe the gap between category picker & category header to notice the emojis being visible in the background.

In a sense the emojis flicker and bleed through the background of the gap.

Expected result:

There should be no gap & you should not be able to see the emojis behind any views.

Actual Result:

There is a gap between the category picker & category header thus you can briefly see emojis in that gap while scrolling

Workaround:

Edit:

Quick summary of timeline on bug reports here:

• On Feb 17 @priyeshshah11 provided a bug report in slack like we usually do.
• However, on Feb 13 @aimane-chnaif actually discovered and posted about this bug in a PR here.
• Both methods of raising a bug with the Expensify team are viable actually. Ideally speaking we should've created a Slack post or GH issue after Aimane's comment in the PR, but that was missed till now (likely because he thought the bug may get fixed in the associated PR)
• So technically @aimane-chnaif raised @priyeshshah11 posted this bug first and will be awarded the bug reporting bonus (after it's fixed)

This bug is indeed reproducibl on latest iOS app version. Not reproducible on other platforms as far as I can see (desktop/web).

The bug is especially reproducible if you quickly scroll, stop, and then slowly scroll between various emoji categories. Basically vary the scroll speed.

Cleaned up the title and body fo this GH so it's ready to be worked on. Going External with this one.
