Is there a way around Apple's UITextField Emoji bug?

So, Apple has a bug right now where if you type an Emoji into a UITextField, it will shift the text down. In fact, if you type enough emojis and then backspace, it'll shift the text even further down from where it was supposed to be. I confirmed this by trying UITextFields in Twitter, Snapchat and other apps.

Here is a video of my app displaying the bug.

Use this: textField.clipsToBounds = false

It prevents the textField to move when editing. Even when you try to edit it again.

I don't think their would be a way around this, as it just seems that the emoji is changing the margin of the text inside of the UITextField.
