Did you find any workaround?

Microsoft.Maui.Handlers.ViewHandler.ViewMapper.AppendToMapping("Customizations", (handler, view) =>
{
#if MACCATALYST
    if (view?.Handler?.PlatformView is UIKit.UIView iosView)
    {
        try 
        {
            iosView.AddInteraction(new UIKit.UIToolTipInteraction((ToolTipProperties.GetText((View)view)).ToString()));
        } catch (Exception) 
        {
            // gettext returns null if item does not have tooltip
        }
    }
#endif
});

Verified this issue with Visual Studio 17.6.11(build400)(8.0.21 & 8.0.7). Can repro it.

I think this might be related to garbage collection

I put some GC's into our device tests here
#19409

And when I force a GC the tooltips seem to vanish
