Cannot call this.inputRefs.picker.togglePicker() on Android

I am using your example on an Android and noticed that I cannot call 'this.inputRefs.picker.togglePicker() ' to the reference created in the example. This works perfectly for IOS but not Android.

I'll take a look

I have the same issue, cannot open modal when calling 'this.inputRefs.picker.togglePicker() ' .

I think this is related facebook/react-native#7817

[lfkwtz]

@kholiavko-roman is correct. would need a workaround to trigger the picker programmatically on android.

closing this issue as it will live in the feature request board

Hm, I think this may be fixed by #107, since this was my primary goal when adding forwardRef. 🤔

@lfkwtz do we have an update on this?

[lfkwtz]

No. Same issue exists - using the native Android Picker element exposes no API to programmatically trigger the Picker. There may be a hacky way to simulate it - but I haven't thought too much about it.

any update on this? It would be great to make it work!

I haven't looked into it recently. Open to prs.
