This is hard to explain, but it happens so often [View all]

Sometimes after I've composed an OP or a response, I make some sort of mistake with a rapid finger movement - and it causes me to lose the whole message and can't get it back.

If I accidentally lose it by going to another screen, I can get it back if I use "History," but I don't know how to get it back when I make whatever mistake that is when everything disappears...

Can you figure out what happens and how to retrieve it? Some posts have a lot of work behind them looking up stuff and I hate to have to look up the same material...

Thank you so much.
