This happens when the keyboard is open but if the keyboard is closed, you can see the member list.

I think this PR might have broken this when changing the KeyboardAvoidingView. cc/ @jasperhuangg @marcaaron @iwiznia @arosiclair

Ahh, the missing options list under new chat must be because of how views and flexbox are platform dependent; the view that contains the options list probably isn't growing to fill the flex container.

As for the missing FAB options I don't think they would be affected by my PR.

I tested this on the Android emulator and it worked fine, I'm assuming it's only reproducible on a physical device.

I'm OOO today, any chance we could deploy without this? Retesting after fixing is probably going to take a while given all the different views that this feature touches.

[iwiznia]

Let's revert the PR then?

[pecanoro]

There are no missing FAB options, the problem is only the keyboard opening, I tried on my phone and I was able to reproduce so unless we want all phones with the bug I am with Ioni, we should revert the PR until we get to fix it.

@jasperhuangg can we revert this PR since it seems to be causing this issue?

[luacmartins]

@kbecciv we reverted the PR that may have caused this issue. Can we retest and close this issue if it's a pass? Thank you!

[luacmartins]

This seems to have been fixed by the revert. Closing!

[kbecciv]

@luacmartins Issue is still exist in Android app on build 1.1.86.8

[luacmartins]

Hmm I'll reopen it to investigate then, but I don't think it's a blocker anymore

There are no missing FAB options, the problem is only the keyboard opening

@kbecciv @pecanoro mentioned that there aren't any missing FAB options, the main bug here is the problem with displaying the list of users in the New Chat and New Group pages, which both have been resolved in #10140

Therefore I'm going to close this out.
