It's reproducible, but there seems to be some history on it here: #11146. We seem to have closed that issue due to a freeze on keyboard navigation, but I don't actually think it falls under that umbrella.

Let's open this up. I understand the root cause might be upstream so that's the proposal we're probably looking for. Is that right? CC: @fedirjh @hannojg @thienlnam @Santhosh-Sellavel

Looks like something related to react-navigation may have been mentioned in this issue discussion.

As a reminder, please make sure that all proposals are not workarounds and that any and all attempt to fix the issue holistically have been made before proceeding with a solution. Proposals to change our DeprecatedCustomActions.js files should not be accepted.

Feel free to drop a note in #expensify-open-source with any questions.

Down to one major blocker on Fabric.

[trjExpensify]

Latest on Fabric: #8503 (comment)

[roryabraham]

Still on HOLD, but we're getting closer to merging new arch

[trjExpensify]

Still held, latest on Fabric here.

[eVoloshchak]

Update: according to #8503 (comment)

it seems plausible that switching to Fabric in Expensify is a matter of weeks / 1-2 months

[trjExpensify]

What's the latest status on switching to Fabric? I think this follow-up issue can go in #wave-collect as polish.

[roryabraham]

Fabric is live, taking this off HOLD

[trjExpensify]

Alright, what are the next steps and who's doing them? Thanks!

[eVoloshchak]

@trjExpensify, I cannot reproduce this bug anymore, the cursor looks normal

Screen.Recording.2024-05-05.at.22.39.04.mov

There's still something weird going on with the first symbol when entering numbers quickly (0:08 in the video above), is that something that needs to be fixed?

[trjExpensify]

On a real iOS device on the latest TF (v1.4.71-0), I can't reproduce the reported bug in the OP, nor that one you mentioned just now. Anyone else on this issue have a real iOS device to try for a second opinion on that before we close it out?

[eVoloshchak]

@trjExpensify, checked on a physical device, both bugs are not present

[trjExpensify]

Great, so we can close this then!
