iOS DropboxSDK LinkFromController login credential field's placeholder text overlaps user entered text

Using SDK version 1.3.13 and presenting the user login screen as follows:

DBSession* session = [[DBSession alloc] initWithAppKey:kDropboxAppKeyStr

                                                     appSecret:kDropboxSecretStr

                                                          root:kDBRootDropbox];

        [DBSession setSharedSession:session];

        session.delegate = self;

[[DBSession sharedSession] linkFromController:viewController];

 

When the DB login screen is shown and the user enters their credentials, the placeholder text is not removed causing it to overlap what the user entered like this:

Surprisingly I cannot find anyone else talking about this, am I doing something wrong? This happens with both iOS 8 and 9.

    I noticed this is happening again, did something regress?  Same exact code I'm working with on my end.

    Any solution to this problem?

    The problem started a week ago, and seems silly but is very annoying for the user.

    Thanks in advance
