Description

I have a simple InputAccessoryView of TouchableOpacities to navigate a gradebook table of TextInputs as pictured here. However, this InputAccessoryView does not respond to touch very well at all. Most of the time, the keyboard closes immediately when one of the opacities is touched, sometimes it does nothing, and only very rarely is the onPress callback called.

Reproducible Demo

Unfortunately I can't share my code as it's proprietary, but I have around 160 of these TextInputs with accessory views in a table, so perhaps the problem lies in the number of views I'm creating

Can you please provide a minimal reproduction? No need to share your proprietary code, as you should be able to reproduce the issue on a brand new project.

@calebnelson Are elements inside accessory view enclosed in FlatList or ScrollView? If so try to set keyboardShouldPersistTaps="always" on it. I had similar issues without it.
