Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

App redirects to Profile page when cleared status without saving

What is the root cause of that problem?

This seems to be expected.

It is happening because we are navigating back after clearing status inside clearStatus.

 InteractionManager.runAfterInteractions(() => {
      navigateBackToPreviousScreen();
  });
};

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

If we want to change this, we want simply remove the above. After update:

const clearStatus = () => {
    User.clearCustomStatus();
    User.updateDraftCustomStatus({
        text: '',
        emojiCode: '',
        clearAfter: DateUtils.getEndOfToday(),
    });
    formRef.current?.resetForm({[INPUT_IDS.EMOJI_CODE]: ''});
};

Intentional behaviour not a bug

Actual Result: App redirects to Profile page when cleared status without saving. Status reappears for a moment when clear it only on Web

I don't see status reappearing on main. This is intentional behaviour and not a bug.

[miljakljajic]

I agree that this is expected - going to close out.
