I couldn't reproduce on iOS native, but regardless, this doesn't need to be a blocker

Proposal


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

Contact method - Keyboard not opened when navigating to enter magic code step

What is the root cause of that problem?

• useAutoFocusInput callback is not used.
  

  App/src/components/ValidateCodeActionModal/ValidateCodeForm/BaseValidateCodeForm.tsx

  Line 184 in 21f7842

  ref={inputValidateCodeRef}

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


• We should use useAutoFocusInput callback.
• We can use mergeRefs.

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

Proposal

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

Keyboard doesn't open when open the magic code step on Android.

What is the root cause of that problem?

It's a common issue on Android where we need a delay in focusing and showing the keyboard. We already do that here.

App/src/components/ValidateCodeActionModal/ValidateCodeForm/BaseValidateCodeForm.tsx

Lines 111 to 129 in faf48fc

	useFocusEffect(
	useCallback(() => {
	if (!inputValidateCodeRef.current) {
	return;
	}
	if (focusTimeoutRef.current) {
	clearTimeout(focusTimeoutRef.current);
	}
	focusTimeoutRef.current = setTimeout(() => {
	inputValidateCodeRef.current?.focusLastSelected();
	}, CONST.ANIMATED_TRANSITION);
	return () => {
	if (!focusTimeoutRef.current) {
	return;
	}
	clearTimeout(focusTimeoutRef.current);
	};
	}, []),
	);

However, it's useless because we set autoFocus to the magic code input without shouldDelayFocus, so the input is focused immediately.

App/src/components/ValidateCodeActionModal/ValidateCodeForm/BaseValidateCodeForm.tsx

Line 191 in faf48fc

autoFocus

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

Since we already handle the focus manually (so it's focused whenever the screen is re-focused), we can set the autoFocus to false.

autoFocus={false}
