Bug Report - onPress not firing on Android on all version.

[hugoh59]

It simply stopped working for all version on Android. I'm not sure why, anybody else getting the issue as well ?

[hugoh59]

I thought the issue was related to input being inside a Flatlist but actually not! And on ios on the development version it works fine even in release mode but not on TestFlight and app store version.

I am also facing the same issue the onPress event is working fine on ios but not working on Android... If anyone has come to any solution please do let us know.

@hugoh59 @HassanNaeem555 I encountered the same issue while implementing this component a second time inside my app. While the first implementation was working just fine, the second wasn't. At some point I noticed that this started happening once I wrapped the GooglePlaces component in a ScrollView in order to dodge the VirtualizedLists error (see https://github.com/FaridSafi/react-native-google-places-autocomplete/issues/475), something that I didn't do in the first implementation since the screen was quite different. In case you are wrapping the component in the same way, make sure to pass the keyboardShouldPersistTaps='handled' prop to the wrapping ScrollView:

<ScrollView
  contentContainerStyle={contentContainerStyle}
  horizontal={true}
  keyboardShouldPersistTaps='handled' // HERE
  scrollEnabled={false}
>
    <GooglePlacesAutocomplete ... />
</ScrollView>

Doing so restored the correct onPress behavior on Android.
