autoFocus opens the keyboard immediately on mount, which can block UI elements before the screen finishes rendering. Replace it with a ref-based focus triggered after a 300 ms delay, giving the navigation transition time to complete on both iOS and Android. - Add nameInputRef (useRef<TextInput>) to the name field - Remove autoFocus prop from the name TextInput - Focus the input programmatically after 300 ms in a useEffect - Import useRef from React
…lity tracking - Switch KeyboardAvoidingView behavior to 'padding' on iOS and undefined on Android (Android handles scroll natively) - Track keyboard show/hide events with Keyboard listeners to set isKeyboardVisible state - Apply extra bottom padding to ScrollView content when keyboard is open so all form fields remain reachable - Import Keyboard from react-native
