Dragging finger from D-pad to screen makes Walking/Jumping stop

Hello Mojang,

Dragging our finger from D-pad to screen makes Walking/Jumping stop and we move our head instead. Same on my other Mobile devices. This issue causes all the sudden sprint/jump cancelling.

Expectation: Tapping the movement buttons to walk (should be still walking even if we slide our finger away from the  D-pad)

Reality: We stop walking/jumping and the circle appears that makes our head move (same on split control except the circle is not visible)

Is there a way you guys could fix this D-pad issue?

 

Issues similar to this already have been reported (they are similar to this one but not actually the same issue)
