I can't reproduce this - the saved "Edit" flickers but it doesn't disappear. I think we need a video and the steps checked in the OP.

Hi @Christinadobrzyn, I can reproduce this issue with build v1.3.83-4 on iOS 16.6.1. Input field disappears for a moment for me. It's like scrolling down off the screen.

I can reproduce - I think this can be external.
