Description

UI suggest I can't set no value in the 'Mixed value' field.

Not sure what is the real behavior as there is a bug when saving an empty field (https://github.com/MerginMaps/mobile/issues/3821).

Expected behavior:
You can cancel the edit with the back button and not save changes, so you should be able to set an empty value to the 'mixed' field. In that case, there should not appear 'Mixed value' placeholder again in the field.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the edit flow for a field showing “Mixed value,” including cancelling with the back button and saving an empty value. Compare the behavior with the related issue #3821; done means an intentionally empty value stays empty and the “Mixed value” placeholder does not reappear.
