Yes, I'm also facing the same issue. Is there any workaround for it? or How to disable the system cursor?

@vetriselvi-i2i @azizanhakim //Create shape empty

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
 <shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
 android:shape="rectangle" >

 <size
    android:height="0dp"
    android:width="0dp" />

 </shape>

and just use this in edittext android:textSelectHandle="@drawable/your_empty_shape"

***It work for me

I have the same problem. I tried this but didn't work.

@bgraknd //This is new solution for me use Kotlin

private fun focusAndShowKeyboard(context: Context, editText: EditText) {
        editText.requestFocus()
        val imm: InputMethodManager = context.getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE) as InputMethodManager
        imm.toggleSoftInput(InputMethodManager.SHOW_FORCED, InputMethodManager.HIDE_IMPLICIT_ONLY)
    }

 cvvView.apply {
            setOnTouchListener { view, motionEvent ->
                focusAndShowKeyboard(view.context, this)
                true
            }
}

<com.mukesh.OtpView
                android:id="@+id/otp_view"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:cursorVisible="false"
                android:inputType="number"
                android:textSelectHandle="@android:color/transparent"
                app:OtpCursorColor="@color/indigo"
                app:OtpHideLineWhenFilled="false"
                app:OtpItemCount="6" />

Add these two lines in your XML layout:

android:cursorVisible="false"
android:textSelectHandle="@android:color/transparent"
