onSelectionChange and onChangeText queues differently in android and ios

[abdulrahman18]

Description

When the input changes, the onChangeText triggers first in Android and onSelectionChanges triggers next. But in iPhone its vice verse.

React Native version:

react-native-cli: 2.0.1
react-native: n/a - not inside a React Native project directory (expo - sdk 57)

Steps To Reproduce

Add onSelectionChange and onCHangeText for a TextInput,
Change and see the log

Expected Results

Its should be consistent for both anyone in either way
I need the selection start and end to string manipulate for tag mentions. Due to this bug, we couldn't make the string logics based on the text input and caret selection.

Note: All the versions are latest up to yesterday.

Expo SDK 37 relies on react native .61

Can you try this in a bare react native project using the latest version and see if you can reproduce the issue?

Sounds like you have a standalone repro but I'm not seeing a link?
