Seeing this issue persist across quite a few games, including ours, Brookhaven RP. iOS users are essentially unable to use the chat service as the keyboard tends to freeze up. TikTok - Make Your Day See the attached tiktok for reference. This is easy to repro
I’ve personally had no issues so far. Maybe try and replace the descendants of TextChatService in your game with those from a roblox template.
Can confirm it is also an issue I have had as well and experienced; I thought it had been fixed but I guess not; it usually leads for the keyboard to be stuck on the screen which is annoying. Will this be fixed soon?

Hey, just a heads up we’re looking into this right now.

Hey! We are rolling out an A/B experiment that should improve performance when users type (P95 FPS decrease by 5%). This should help this freezing issue but won’t completely solve it. Otherwise as @wellreadundead mentioned, we are root causing this issue and will get back soon.

We took a look at this issue and was able to reproduce this on iOS 18.3.2. However, when upgrading to the latest to 18.4.1 we were no longer able to reproduce. We think this has been addressed by Apple’s latest iOS update.

Hey, one of my players reported that this still happens to them when focusing on any text boxes, even after updating to iOS 18.4.1. It doesn’t happen every single time but happens frequently enough to make things like the chat a pain to use. Video below.
What experience is this? Are you able to repro on other experiences as well on 18.4.1?
Same problem, This problem have in any game on iOS 18.4.1 (iPhone 14 Pro), even just sometimes freezing for some time. Mostly I notice it in rivals, first games for today that problem happens but later now work great.
This is happening in my experience here: Kohaú Hibachi Restaurant 🍣 - Roblox. Not sure if it’s specific to my experience, but it was reported today so still an ongoing issue.
Hey folks, we are still root causing this issue. We’ve isolated the issue to iPhone Pros running iOS 18.
Here are some potential work arounds:
- Limit Frame Rate in Settings → Accessibility → Motion.
- Or switch to low battery mode

We believe we may have fixed the issue. Could you please confirm if this is still happening?
We still have players reporting this as of a few hours ago. iOS 18.4.1, iPhone 13 Pro Max.
Unfortunately this still happens 
Here’s me trying it in an empty Clip It server on my iPhone 13 Pro Max.
I have no idea if I’m right - but I have a hunch that it might happen when iOS replaces your misspelled word with the proper spelling? It’s like Roblox freaks out for a short moment when that happens.

It’s still happening on my game, input is slow and freezes
Do you or @LegendOJ1 @VwCookie @Provenoc @Raccia1 notice that your iOS session time starts to drop well below Android starting around Dec 7 2024?
If I look at my past 9 months or so of data I see a pretty big dip in iOS session time around Dec 7.
We use github to build new releases of our experience so we have some excellent change logs (line by line!). I’ve gone through everything in the weeks before & after that date. I saw that we didn’t make any significant changes or any changes relating to how we handle user input, text, etc…

Hard to read tbh but it does seem like sometime around December my session iOS session time did drop off a bit.
