1. Tap the 'input'
2. Type 'hellp' using the on screen keyboard

A blue rectangle appears.

This demo simulates a fake input. In cases like this, the developer wants the user to interact with a real input (and gain all the usability and accessibility benefits), but they want to create a different visual representation of the input, so the real input is visually hidden.

The blue rectangle is the highlight iOS produces when an autocorrect candidate is found. This shouldn't be visible in this example. Ideally it would take the opacity of the input into account.
