Thanks for reporting this! I’m aware of the problem and I’m actively looking for solutions, but so far I haven’t found one.
It seems to be related to the new iOS17 predictive typing, because most often the duplication of text will happen when iOS tries to predict the rest of a sentence.
I’ll keep looking for a solution, since it’s quite jarring. Will keep you posted (:
I was thinking that was the issue, I first turned off auto-correct but the issue persisted. I’ve just now turned off “show predictions inline” and it seems to no longer be exhibiting the issue.
It’s particularly odd that I don’t recall having that issue in any other app. Is there something special about the way you’re formatting the text for that text field?
Thanks to your suggestion I found a way to disable the predictive text feature in the markdown editor. While this is not the perfect solution, it does at least seem to fix the issue for now.
I’ll keep looking for a better solution, but in the meantime I’ll try to have a new app update ready in the coming week that includes this temporary fix :D
Ah, sweet!
