When using a text input box on iOS, regardless of whether keyboard type is set to “number pad” or left “default,” there is no “Done” or “Return” button shown and the keyboard covers any navigation buttons or other fields to show at the bottom of the screen. After doing some quick research, people coding in React have added a “done” button using the “returnKeyType” property seen here: https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/textinput.html#returnkeytype - It would be SUPER helpful for us to be able to control this functionality as it really hurting our user experience on iOS.
Since Android already has the done button by default, it’s a non-issue (other than the overlap.) The cross-platform value options would be very useful:
returnKeyType
Determines how the return key should look. On Android you can also use returnKeyLabel.
