If you don’t want it to squish you can enable multiline in the advanced design settings of the text input. You can also set its width to be a percentage of the screen, and make sure the percentages of all the other components in the row add up to less than or = to 100% (more than 100% would go outside the screen boundaries)
When using width, you should always use percentages where possible.
