I've seen similar things with a physical keyboard connected. There are plenty other Android apps that can handle connected keyboards corrected by not showing the on screen keyboard(OSK) (the now defunct RIF being one). Right now the only way to not have flashing OSK is to turn it off system wide under android settings, which is not ideal (because it won't turn itself on automatically when the physical keyboard disconnects)

I am not using a physical keyboard (in my case at least), but it is about the OSK flashing.. apparently when i shut down some app using the accessiblity api the osk doesn't flash anymore, while i am typing this at least. but nonetheless, thank you for ur input :)
Thanks for the pointer, I actually have accessibility turned on via bitwarden (a password manager) and never thought that might be correlated. Will test when I get the chance.
in fact someone down this thread pointed that to me xd still, u can give it a look and see if the problem could be sorted that way. anytime :)
Do you have some external device plugged in? Tried rebooting your phone, reinstalling the app? Some weird accessibility setting turned on?
