TextFormField becomes unresponsive after Navigator.push

[vongrad]

Steps to reproduce

TextFormField is not able to receive focus when it is within a page that gets pushed using Navigator.of(context).push. On the other hand, if the new page is pushed using Navigator.of(context).pushReplacement, it receives focus and the user can input text. This happens specifically on simulator iPhone SE (3rd generation) with iOS 17.2 and probably other devices, although not tested. On the other hand, it works on simulator iPhone 15 Pro with iOS 17.2.

1. Create iOS simulator running iPhone SE (3rd generation) with iOS 17.2
2. Run the provided sample code
3. Click on Go to page 2 button
4. Click inside the TextFormField

Expected results

After clicking into the TextFormField, it receives focus and the user can input text into it.

Actual results

The TextFormField is unable to receive focus and becomes unresponsive.
On the other hand, if the new page is pushed using Navigator.of(context).pushReplacement, everything works as expected.

class _MyHomePageState extends State<MyHomePage> {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {

        backgroundColor: Theme.of(context).colorScheme.inversePrimary,
        title: Text(widget.title),
      ),
      body: Center(
        child: Column(
          mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,

                      .push(MaterialPageRoute(builder: (context) => Page2()));
                },
                child: Text('Go to page 2'))
          ],
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

class Page2 extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(),
      body: SafeArea(
        child: Column(
          mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,

@vongrad I checked the issue using the same simulator but couldn't see the issue. Maybe this is just a simulator setting as @storm265 shared above, so please check it to see if it works for you.
