I reported this bug while working on the composer in this issue:

• [HOLD for payment 2024-08-09] [HOLD for payment 2024-08-01] [$250] CRITICAL: Native - Message stays in the Composer after being sent #37896

I am Hanno from Margelo, an expert agency, and I'd like to work on this issue (feel free to assign me) 😊

[zanyrenney]

thanks @hannojg

[zanyrenney]

how are you getting on with this one @hannojg please ensure to give progress updates according to the cadence listed on the labels. e.g. daily in this case.

Thank you!

[hannojg]

Thank you, I was waiting for this composer PR to get merged first:

• Composer: add clear command that bypasses the event count #46091

now that its merged I will look into that issue today and provide updates along the way! 😊

[hannojg]

Not reproducible for me from main branch - neither on android nor iOS. Not sure but my previous PR might have fixed that issue already!

[zanyrenney]

Let me try and test quickly.

Also can't reproduce so probably yes fixed with your latest PR @hannojg - nice! Thank you!
