Our Flutter app has been rejected by App Review 4 times with this description: "Login screen cleared the email and password fields when we attempted to enter the demo account details, preventing us from logging in."
Review environment:
Device: iPad Air 11-inch (M3) OS: iPadOS 26.4.2 Flutter version: 3.41.4 State management: GetX We cannot reproduce this on:
Real iPhone (iOS 18.x) — works fine iPad simulator (iPadOS 26.3.1) — works fine Our TextEditingControllers are created inside a GetX controller, not inside build(), so they survive widget rebuilds.
Questions:
Has anyone seen text fields clearing or not retaining input specifically on iPad with iPadOS 26? Are there any known Flutter issues with text input on iPadOS 26 that could cause this? Is there anything different about how iPad handles text input vs iPhone that we should be aware of? Any help appreciated — this is blocking our App Store approval.
