I created a screen keyboard component that I want to disable the platform's keyboard, how I can disable it?
<TextInput secureTextEntry ref="Pin" selectionColor="#656565" keyboardType="numeric" activeColor="#656565" inactiveColor="#fff" autoFocus={false} ignoreCase codeLength={4} inputPosition="center" size={50} onFulfill={isValid => this} codeInputStyle={{ borderWidth: 1.5 }} /> Just write showSoftInputOnFocus={false} in <TextInput> like this:
<TextInput showSoftInputOnFocus={false} /> I had issues also. No other solutions was working for me. This will display text input field and it will be clickable but not editable.
<TouchableOpacity onPress={this.openPinKeyboard}> <View pointerEvents="none"> <Input editable={false} value="1234" /> </View> </TouchableOpacity> 
I think you need to add something like:
<TextInput showSoftInputOnFocus={false} keyboardType="numeric" /> setting keyboardType to null worked for me
EDIT:
this only worked in the simulator, running it on an actual device the native keyboard still appeared.
wrapping the <TextInput /> in a <TouchableWithoutFeedback> element in the example below worked.
<TouchableWithoutFeedback onPress={Keyboard.dismiss} > <TextInput /> </TouchableWithoutFeedback>
You may try to set keyboardType to none, if it doesn't work another alternative is to set the editable prop to false.

<TextInput showSoftInputOnFocus={false}/> This work for me, sometime I need onFocus action to navigate new screen, and don't need keyboard open animation. Prop Editable will disable textfield, can not pressable
The easiest solution is to use the onFocus prop on TextInput.
Keyboard from ‘react-native’import {Keyboard, TextInput} from 'react-native'
Keyboard.dismiss() to TextInput onFocus prop, to stop the keyboard from popping up when focused.<TextInput onFocus = {()=> Keyboard.dismiss()} .../>
Now test the input field by pressing it to see if the keyboard will pop up
just put this under text input tag this worked for me in react-native
<TextInput //this line editable={false} /> try this solution i hope this will work for android and ios both...
// Step 1: Get Keyboard, TouchableWithoutFeedback from ‘react-native’; import { View, TextInput, StyleSheet, Keyboard, TouchableWithoutFeedback } from 'react-native'; // Step 2: Create an arrow function to write dismiss keyboard code const DismissKeyboard = ({ children }) => ( <TouchableWithoutFeedback onPress={() => Keyboard.dismiss()}> {children} </TouchableWithoutFeedback> ); // Step 3: Wrap all TextInput inside <DismissKeyboard> </DismissKeyboard> //Example <DismissKeyboard> <View style={styles.container}> <TextInput style={styles.input} placeholder="email" /> <TextInput style={styles.input} placeholder="password" /> </View> </DismissKeyboard> you can do it by pointerEvents="none"
<View pointerEvents="none"> <TextInput focusable={false} style={{color: '#00000000'}} onChangeText={setEmail} /> </View>
