In my app I used ScrollView and on my Android Phone(Redmi Note 7) it works as it should, I can scroll only when keybord is open and elemnts are under the keybord. But on the IOS device (IPhone 5S) screen can be scrolled even when keyboard isnt opened.I even dont know what is the reason.
Isn't your elements in ScrollView are longer than the screen height size?
You can check the element is over the screen by clicking Cmd+D Show Inspector and clicking bottom of the view.
Set your scrollview style to flex:1 then it should work.
We have essay way just use KeyboardAvoidingView on render ex:
I hope works well.docs
<ScrollView style={{flex:1}}>
<KeyboardAvoidingView behavior="padding">
{content}
</KeyboardAvoidingView>
</ScrollView>
TextInputs at the bottom of the screen in a FlatList automatically and immediately dismiss the keyboard on focus, making it impossible to write anything in it.
The issue is reproducible easily on a blank react-native init project. I tested it in Nexus 5x simulator and real device. I reproduce the bug every time on 0.61.

Just add one props in your FlatList as below:
<FlatList
keyboardDismissMode={'none'}
.....
</FlatList>
Chears.!
Just don't give the component reference to the Flatlist footer because when we update state of the component then arrow function creates a new reference that's why TextInput loses it's focus. Just return direct View to the Flatlist footer.
<FlatList
data={...}
ListFooterComponent={renderYourFooter()}
/>
or
<FlatList
data={...}
ListFooterComponent={<View>
<TextInput/>
</View>}
/>
I have a View that renders dynamic cards from an API
<View>
<Card>1</Card>
<Card>2</Card>
<Card>3</Card>
</View>
Is there a way to do a pull-to-refresh on this view?
Make a call to the server and refresh this view without a FlatList component?
React-Native's RefreshControl can only be applied to a ScrollView. (Note that a FlatList is actually a ScrollView).
So wrap your <Card />'s in a <ScrollView> rather than a <View> and you can apply the RefreshControl to it as seen in the docs.
Here is an example Snack for you: https://snack.expo.io/Hk606OYKM
I need a layout with a sticky footer.
So, I created something like:
<View>
<ScrollView>
....
</ScrollView>
<View>
//this is the footer
</View>
</View>
However, in the ScrollView I have some TextInput elements, and when the keyboard is displayed it always pushes the footer up so that its just above the keyboard.
I want to allow the keyboard to cover the contents of the footer.
Any idea how that can be achieved?
Thanks!
I'm new to React Native, so am probably asking something very obvious, but please help.
I have a view wrapped in a touchable, so that the whole area responds to tapping. Then have a ScrollView nested inside the view. The overall structure is something like this:
<TouchableWithoutFeedback onPress={this.handlePress.bind(this)}>
<View>
<ScrollView>
<Text>Hello, here is a very long text that needs scrolling.</Text>
<ScrollView>
</View>
</TouchableWithoutFeedback>
When this compiles and runs, the tapping is detected, but the scroll view doesn't scroll at all. I made the above code short and simple, but each component has the proper styling and I can see everything rendering fine and the long text is cutoff at the bottom of the ScrollView. Please help.
Thank you!
This is what worked for me:
<TouchableWithoutFeedback onPress={...}>
<View>
<ScrollView>
<View onStartShouldSetResponder={() => true}>
// Scrollable content
</View>
</ScrollView>
</View>
</TouchableWithoutFeedback>
The onStartShouldSetResponder prop stops the touch event propagation towards the TouchableWithoutFeedback element.
I'm using this structure it's working for me:
<TouchableWithoutFeedback onPress={() => {}}>
{other content}
<View onStartShouldSetResponder={() => true}>
<ScrollView>
{scrollable content}
</ScrollView>
</View>
</TouchableWithoutFeedback>
You can have a scrollView or FlatList inside a TouchableWithoutFeedback. Tho you shouldn't but some times you have no other choice to go. Taking a good look at this questions and answer validates that.
close react native modal by clicking on overlay,
how to dismiss modal by tapping screen in react native.
For the Question, The only way you can make it work (atleast that i know of), or the simplest way is to add a TouchableOpacity around Text in your code like this,
<TouchableWithoutFeedback onPress={this.handlePress.bind(this)}>
<View>
<ScrollView>
<TouchableOpacity>
<Text>Hello, here is a very long text that needs scrolling.</Text>
</TouchableOpacity>
<ScrollView>
</View>
</TouchableWithoutFeedback>
Note: TouchableOpacity is a wrapper for making Views respond properly to touches so automatically you can style it the way you would have styled your View Component then set some of its special props to whatever you want e.g activeOpacity etc. Moreso you can use TouchableHighlight it works, but it receives one child element i.e you enclose all your component inside a parent one.
I'm using this structure it's working for me:
<TouchableOpacity>
{other content}
<ScrollView>
<TouchableOpacity activeOpacity={1}>
{scrollable content}
</TouchableOpacity>
</ScrollView>
I found that for my situation the other examples did not work as they disabled the ability to click or disabled the ability to scroll. I instead used:
<FlatList
data={[{key: text1 }, { key: text2 } ...]}
renderItem={({ item }) => (
<TouchableWithoutFeedback onPress={this.onPressContent}>
<Text style={styles.text}>{item.key}</Text>
</TouchableWithoutFeedback>
)}
/>
I happend to need to multiple chunks but you could use single element in the data array for one piece of text.
This let the press event to fire as well as let the text scroll.
Trying to use a ScrollView component inside a TouchableWithoutFeedback component can cause some unexpected behavior because the TouchableWithoutFeedback component is designed to capture user gestures and trigger an action, but the ScrollView component is designed to allow users to scroll through content.Here is what the official docs say
Do not use unless you have a very good reason. All elements that
respond to press should have a visual feedback when touched.
TouchableWithoutFeedback supports only one child. If you wish to have
several child components, wrap them in a View. Importantly,
TouchableWithoutFeedback works by cloning its child and applying
responder props to it. It is therefore required that any intermediary
components pass through those props to the underlying React Native
component.
Thats write , you cannot have a scroll view inside the TouchableWithoutFeedback, it the property of react native that it will disable it, you can instead have your scroll view outside the TouchableWithoutFeedback tab and add the other contents that you want upon the click inside a view tag.
You can also use the Touchable Highlights instead, if the TouchableWithoutFeedback does not works.
