For Xamarin.Forms versions after 5.0.0.2515, on my Android (Samsung A20e, Android 11) phone, I get the following issue:
Given I want to show a dialog so the user can enter a name
When I use the following code
var test1 = await Application.Current.MainPage.DisplayPromptAsync("Test", "Vul in", maxLength: 100, keyboard: Keyboard.Plain, initialValue:"test");Then I expect to see it and let the user enter the name
Results:
The dialog shows but the value is not editable and no keyboard is shown on Android

Workaround
you can uninstall Xamarin.Forms, and install specific version: 5.0.0.2515. This is the last version where the input field is working for me.
