const content = easyMDE.value()
It is just unreliable.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in Android WebView with EasyMDE 2.20.0, using the reported value(), codemirror.getValue(), and codemirror.save() paths after editing text. Compare each result with the editor contents; done means a button-triggered read consistently returns the latest text.
