I'm also facing this issue, any word if it might get fixed soon?

[ospfranco]

I would be willing to fix this issue, I have no idea where to look though, I've tried RCTTextInputViewManager class but I don't see any focus/blur method. If someone can provide me with some guidance to were the focus/blur method is executed I can try it.

@ospfranco Facing same issue here, Couldn't find the methods. Also blurOnSubmit doesn't seem to work as expected. You got any solutions for that ?
