useReanimatedFocusedInput

Hook that returns an information about TextInput that currently has a focus. Returns null if no input has focus.

Hook will update its value in next cases:

• when keyboard changes its size (appears, disappears, changes size because of different input mode);
• when focus was changed from one TextInput to another;
• when layout of focused input was changed;
• when user types a text.

Events order

The value from useReanimatedFocusedInput will be always updated before keyboard events, so you can safely read values in onStart handler and be sure they are up-to-date.

Event structure

The input property from this hook is returned as SharedValue. The returned data has next structure:

type FocusedInputLayoutChangedEvent = {
  target: number; // tag of the focused TextInput

  // layout of the focused TextInput
  layout: {
    x: number; // `x` coordinate inside the parent component
    y: number; // `y` coordinate inside the parent component
    width: number; // `width` of the TextInput
    height: number; // `height` of the TextInput
    absoluteX: number; // `x` coordinate on the screen
    absoluteY: number; // `y` coordinate on the screen
  };
};
