Description

What problem does this address?

When editing existing texts with links using iOS' Writing Tools, links are discarded once the edited text is inserted into the editor. This outcome makes it difficult to use the Writing Tools effectively—one must either manually reinstate links or avoid using the Writing Tools on text containing links.

Screen recording

What is your proposed solution?

We should preserve the text formatting.
