I tried the app and dragging down on the content doesn’t dismiss the keyboard interactively like Messages, Safari or even ChatGPT does. That is usually the telltale sign that an app is not fully native, I haven’t see any cross platform framework succeeding with this particular behavior. Not the end of the world but still expected in Design Award runner ups.

Interesting, that actually should work.

Are you on iOS 26.2 by chance? I'm currently investigating a regression on interactive keyboard dismissal specific to iOS 26.2.

Note sure about 26.2 but on 26.1, setting the following on a native UITextView makes it work:

    textView.keyboardDismissMode = .interactive

Should be doable via react native too.

Yeah that's what we use (and we showed it in the patch in the blog post).

There was a bug on a particular iOS 26.2 beta, but it looks like it's already fixed
