I would say its one of the most important fixes, I'm facing this issue right now.

I'm unsubscribing this issue. Here's how I resolve this. The crash happens randomly, certain pages do every time, some pages never crash. I even removed everything in the page except the InputText, the page still, crashed. So I abandoned this wonderful plugin, and go to an IOS developer for help. Yeah, the keyboard problem only happens on IOS devices, and he recommend me an IOS plugin:IQKeyboardManager-master, and I just simply drag the folder into my Xcode, and the problem was fixed perfectly. If you are not a professional IOS developer, and you don't know how to put the IQKeyboardManager plugin into your project, leave a comment, I may tell you the detail.

Issue
Now about the issue. I've sent a PR that has been accepted and will be introduced into React Native 0.32 that solves this issue. For more info and context, please read my explanation here https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/7876.

In this library you have a branch that, if you use the code of my PR, completely solves the issue (https://github.com/APSL/react-native-keyboard-aware-scroll-view/tree/ancestor_check). I'm waiting the release of React Native to merge & release the ancestor_check branch.

And, in this case, I prefer to provide a JavaScript solution to the keyboard & scroll view problem. Once the fix has landed into the React Native core, I'll be able to dig deep into the Android support and you'll have a component working for both platforms without any other dependencies.

The crash do not happen randomly, @pimkle, it does happen when you have two scroll views listening for keyboard events. Please do read my comments in the React Native PR.

any solution for this .. nothing is working here :( :(

Hello @empitechathu!

Everything is working here, we're using the component with the patch in all our apps. Please install the library from the ancestor_check branch and apply the changes in the React Native PR. Once my changes land in a RN release, I'll release the ancestor_check branch.

[pimkle]

@alvaromb I got that! I'll try it someday. Thanks! 😁

[alvaromb]

Please be patient, the PR should land in React Native 0.32 (or 0.33). In the meantime, you can manually add the code to bypass the issue.

@alvaromb 0.32 is released, your PR is in it.

[alvaromb]

Thanks for the info @Swordsman-Inaction!

I'll release a new version of the component today :)

[alvaromb]

I won't have enough time for a release today, haven't tested all the features yet.

Expect a release tomorrow.

Thanks!

@Swordsman-Inaction just FYI, 0.32 isn't released yet, only the RC-0.
