Good Experience until I updated to Android 13. This is a legit review, so my experience on android 13 was so bad. I tried other ways to make ut work, but it seems not fixable. The issue was the keyboard showing with notification trigger, which it's working, but after like a blink if an eye, it disappears. So many users have faced this issue on Android 13 please fix it.
