On Android keyboard does not show up

[devcoderbuzz]

On an Android device if on the previous screen, the keyboard is opened and then navigated to this OTP screen, then the keyboard is shown.

But if the keyboard is not opened and then navigated to this screen, then the keyboard does not show in spite of clicking the text box.

I solved the problem with following workaround

• Declare a ref const inputRef = useRef<OTPInputView>(null)
• set autoFocusOnLoad false <OTPInputView autoFocusOnLoad={false ... />
• call focusField function with 0 index param inside useEffect useEffect(() => { if (inputRef.current) inputRef?.current?.focusField(0) }, [])

I solved the problem by making focus async

in method foucusField added

 setTimeout(() => {
    this.fields[index].focus();
 });

replace the method as below to make it work

    this.focusField = index => {
      if (index < this.fields.length) {
        setTimeout(() => {
          this.fields[index].focus();
        });
        this.setState({
          selectedIndex: index,
        });
      }
    };
