Start by reproducing the issue in the Android app with Notes 4.4.2: open a note and rotate the device several times on Android 12. Trace the note screen's rotation and lifecycle behavior, then verify that the note content remains visible after repeated rotations. No source file or test is identified in the report, and there is no stacktrace.
