 // CHANGELOG
 // (minor and older changes stripped away, please see git history for details)
+//  2026-11-09: Inputs: iOS: restore SDL_StartTextInput()/SDL_StopTextInput() in IME handler for on-screen keyboard support. (#7636, #9474, #9617)
 //  2026-08-06: Fixed querying framebuffer scale when using Metal. (#5592)
-//  2026-07-15: Inputs: restore SDL_StartTextInput()/SDL_StopTextInput() in IME handler for on-screen keyboard support on Android/mobile. (#7636, #9474)
+//  2026-07-15: Inputs: Android: restore SDL_StartTextInput()/SDL_StopTextInput() in IME handler for on-screen keyboard support. (#7636, #9474)
 //  2026-04-16: Made ImGui_ImplSDL2_GetContentScaleForWindow(), ImGui_ImplSDL2_GetContentScaleForDisplay() helpers return a minimum of 1.0f, as some Linux setup seems to report <1.0f value and this breaks scaling border size. (#9369)
 //  2026-02-13: Inputs: systems other than X11 are back to starting mouse capture on mouse down (reverts 2025-02-26 change). Only X11 requires waiting for a drag by default (not ideal, but a better default for X11 users). Added ImGui_ImplSDL2_SetMouseCaptureMode() for X11 debugger users. (#3650, #6410, #9235)
 //  2026-01-15: Changed GetClipboardText() handler to return nullptr on error aka clipboard contents is not text. Consistent with other backends. (#9168)
