Chat UI and message box issue on iOS with react native expo about react-native-chat-ui HOT 9 CLOSED

@demchenkoalex Would be able to shed some light to this issue?
If you're occupied, please point in the right direction so I can explore about fixing it.

Hi @anistark this repo is abandoned for now, I wouldn't suggest using it (only fork). I don't have capacity to maintain it, but want to revive it in the future if time allows. I will be re-writing everything from scratch anyway, so current implementation will not be useful.

Thanks for responding @demchenkoalex

Any starting point on how to fix it till your new version comes up.

Can help maintain the new version if it helps.

never used expo tbh, so not sure. I remember that everything was working correctly on a usual react native project, like here in the example :/

It works perfectly fine on android. But on ios it's acting weird.

I was able to hack fix the issue on keyboard open by pushing it a bit further up using KeyboardAvoidingView as such:

<KeyboardAvoidingView
    behavior="padding"
    keyboardVerticalOffset={-167}
>

But on keyboard exit, the messages scrolls below the box. If I exit the screen and come back, it's back to normal.

@anistark any news?

@anistark any news?

Haven't worked on this in a while. Although I remember fixing it somehow.
But as Alex mentioned above, this project is not maintained anymore.

Are you also working on this?

flatListProps={{ contentContainerStyle: {paddingTop: Platform.OS == 'ios' ? 100 : 0}, }}
Temporary fix for "But on keyboard exit, the messages scrolls below the box. If I exit the screen and come back, it's back to normal."

please use alternative libraries as of right now. If I come back to this, this will be a completely different library, keeping repo just in case I will have a possibility to come back.
