Proposed changes
After a multi-line message was sent on iOS, the composer emptied but kept the old multi-line height, leaving a large blank area above the keyboard.
The composer cleared itself with
setNativeProps({ text: '' }). On the New Architecture that changes the native text without updating the TextInput shadow state, so the input is never re-measured. Clearing now goes throughTextInput.clear(), which updates native state and shrinks the input back to its minimum height. Non-empty programmatic text still usessetNativeProps.Issue(s)

Verified on an iOS 26 simulator. Not verified on Android. The layout re-measure happens natively, so there is no Jest seam that can observe the height; the unit test mock only gained a
