Description

When attempting to add a name for a new list in the native Reminders app, the onscreen keyboard will very briefly be displayed but disappear again before it is possible to access and use it.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Ensure that VoiceOver is enabled.
  2. Open the native Reminders app.
  3. Double tap with 1 finger on the “Add list” button.
  4. Place VoiceOver focus in to the text field for the list name.
  5. Double tap with 1 finger.

At this point you would expect the onscreen keyboard to be displayed, and to be able to use this to give the list a name.

What actually happens is that the onscreen keyboard will very briefly be displayed, but then disappear again, making it impossible to add a new list.
