So far I can't repro this, I've tried on these:

iPhone 15 Pro 18.3
iPad mini (6th gen) 18.3
iPhone 12 Pro Max 17.7.1
iPad Pro (11-inch) 17.5.1
iPhone 12 simulator 18.0
iPad Pro 12.9-inch 6th gen simulator 18.0

We think this might just be confusing with the awkward done button UI:

Tapping "Done" here won't create the reading list, only tapping "Create reading list" will. This should hopefully get better when we change the Done button to Cancel as a part of https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T383460.
