problem is when the user onPress on a keyboard to stop speech audio, text is immediately cleared.

there is console.log onChange func from react-native textInput, where they are get native.text in callback

LOG {"currentText": ""} LOG {"currentText": ""} LOG {"currentText": " 123"} LOG {"currentText": " 1234"} LOG {"currentText": " 12345"} LOG {"currentText": " 123456"} LOG {"currentText": " 1234567"} LOG {"currentText": " 12345678"} LOG {"currentText": " 12345678"} LOG {"currentText": " 12345678"} LOG {"currentText": " 123456789 "} LOG {"currentText": " "} LOG {"currentText": " "} LOG {"currentText": " 123456789"}

also we getting error <_UIKBFeedbackGenerator: 0x600002d4b000>: Couldn't update haptics muting for dictation audio recording. No engine.

In my opinion, the instance of the class is deleted before the audio recording itself is closed

[DenisPostnikov]
