Summary
react-native-keyboard-controllerpadding behavior in both Android chat screensheightbehaviorRoot cause
The controller's
heightbehavior writes animated{ height, flex: 0 }while the keyboard is open, then returns{}when closed. Reanimated can retain those native properties and leave the chat wrapper keyboard-shortened after dismissal.An explicit undefined reset was also rejected by real Pixel testing because it cleared the wrapper's static
flex: 1. Padding behavior avoids both failure modes: it never writes height/flex and closes to an explicit numericpaddingBottom: 0.Verification
