App freezes when focus TextInput

React Native version: 0.61.1

Steps To Reproduce

1. npx react-native init test-textinput
2. add TextInput component

const App = () => {
  const [value, setValue] = useState('init');
  return (
    <View style={{ flex: 1, marginTop: 100 }}>
       <TextInput value={value} onChangeText={text => setValue(text)} />
    </View>
  );
};

1. Open app in Iphone8 emulator

Describe what you expected to happen: it is possible to type text into input field

What actually happens: Application freezes after focusing TextInput

The last comment in the apple thread fixed for me: Simulator: Hardware > "Erase all contents and settings" + disable pastebin sync

I experience the same issue with RN 0.61.2 as well. It works on Android but every focus to TextInput on iOS freezes the app.
