Description

**Description**
After searching for a project in the search bar on the Explore page and pressing "Next" on the keyboard, typing additional letters resets the search functionality even though the text remains visible in the search bar.

**Environment**
- Staging
- Android app version: 2025.4.0
- Android version: Android 14

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Go to the Explore page
2. Start typing a project name (e.g., "test_")
3. Press "Next" on the Android keyboard
4. Type additional letters

**Actual results**
The Explore page shows projects as if nothing was typed in the search bar.

**Expected results**
The Explore page should display projects filtered by the text in the search bar.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue on the Explore page with Android 14 and app version 2025.4.0: type a project name, press "Next" on the keyboard, and continue typing. Trace the Explore search entry point and keyboard handling to find why the visible text no longer filters projects. Done means additional typing after "Next" continues filtering the displayed projects.
