When editing on photoshop it doesnt create layers, it just stays on the same layer. When I want to create a text layer it doesnt show (text layer) in the layer panel it just stays on the same layer.

Behind the tool that you have are three hidden tools. Right-click (or long-press) the Horizontal Type Mask Tool and select the Horizontal Type Tool instead.

 

The Horizontal Type Mask Tool is creating a selection on the current pixel layer that can be filled with a color. It simulates the early days of PS when the Type tool created pixels on layer and before it created vector type on a new layer.
