Tab bar does not respect KeyboardAvoidingView on iOS (Liquid glass) - Renders on top of it #505

bugSomething isn't working

Description

Before submitting a new issue

  • I tested using the latest version of the library, as the bug might be already fixed.
  • I tested using a supported version of react native.
  • I checked for possible duplicate issues, with possible answers.

Bug summary

When using KeyboardAvoidingView with react-native-bottom-tabs on iOS with the new "liquid glass" tab bar style, the keyboard-avoiding content is rendered underneath the tab bar. The KeyboardAvoidingView's padding/height calculation doesn't account for the translucent tab bar height, causing the bottom portion of the content to be obscured.

Current workaround:

const tabBarHeight = useBottomTabBarHeight();

<KeyboardAvoidingView
 behavior="padding"
 style={{ marginBottom: Platform.OS === "ios" ? tabBarHeight : 0 }}>
 {/* content */}
</KeyboardAvoidingView>

Library version

1.1.0

Steps to reproduce

  1. Set up a screen with bottom tabs using react-native-bottom-tabs
  2. Wrap content in a KeyboardAvoidingView with behavior="padding"
  3. Use a view inside it with 100% height or flex 1.
  4. The tab bar renders on top of it.

Reproducible sample code

import React from 'react';
import {
 KeyboardAvoidingView,
 Platform,
 TextInput,
 View,
 StyleSheet,
 Text,
} from 'react-native';
import { createNativeBottomTabNavigator } from 'react-native-bottom-tabs';
import { NavigationContainer } from '@react-navigation/native';
import { useBottomTabBarHeight } from 'react-native-bottom-tabs';
const Tab = createNativeBottomTabNavigator();
function HomeScreen() {
 const tabBarHeight = useBottomTabBarHeight();
 return (
 <KeyboardAvoidingView
 behavior="padding"
 style={styles.container}
 // Workaround: Uncomment the line below to fix the issue
 // style={{ flex: 1, marginBottom: Platform.OS === 'ios' ? tabBarHeight : 0 }}
 >
 <View style={styles.content}>
 <Text style={styles.title}>KeyboardAvoidingView + Bottom Tabs Bug</Text>
 <View style={styles.spacer} />
 <TextInput
 style={styles.input}
 placeholder="Tap here to open keyboard"
 placeholderTextColor="#999"
 />
 </View>
 </KeyboardAvoidingView>
 );
}
function SettingsScreen() {
 return (
 <View style={styles.container}>
 <Text>Settings</Text>
 </View>
 );
}
export default function App() {
 return (
 <NavigationContainer>
 <Tab.Navigator>
 <Tab.Screen
 name="Home"
 component={HomeScreen}
 options={{
 tabBarIcon: () => require('./assets/home-icon.png'),
 }}
 />
 <Tab.Screen
 name="Settings"
 component={SettingsScreen}
 options={{
 tabBarIcon: () => require('./assets/settings-icon.png'),
 }}
 />
 </Tab.Navigator>
 </NavigationContainer>
 );
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
 container: {
 backgroundColor: '#fff',
 },
 content: {
 flex: 1,
 padding: 20,
 justifyContent: 'flex-end',
 },
 title: {
 fontSize: 20,

 },
