@roryabraham FYI I haven't added the External label as I wasn't 100% sure about this issue. Please take a look and add the label if you agree it's a bug and can be handled by external contributors

[lanitochka17]

We think that this bug might be related to #wave-collect - Release 1

[roryabraham]

I've been seeing this one for a while, so I'm pretty sure it's not a deploy blocker. It is really annoying though.

[roryabraham]

I think there are some other preconditions we're missing that makes this happen, because I wasn't able to reproduce this on staging with my rory@expensify.com account. But I've seen it before.

[roryabraham]

It happens with some other TextInputs too... 🤔

[roryabraham]

It looks similar to this Flutter issue

edit: found the similar React Native issue: facebook/react-native#39411

[roryabraham]

It sounds like the consensus in the community is that this is an iOS 17 issue, which is out of our hands.

[roryabraham]

We may be able to disable auto suggestions for the MagicCode input, by setting it to a oneTimePassword input, which seems appropriate. But I'm not sure if that will disable this autocompletion behavior (shows up after opening the email with the magic code)

Edit: Already has oneTimeCode

[roryabraham]

Since I'm pretty certain I've seen this in production, and I'm not consistently seeing it in staging, I'm going to demote it.

I'll make it external just in case I'm being too hasty in thinking that it's most likely an iOS bug, and someone has a simple idea to fix this.

SO If KI restest are not reproducible for more than 3 weeks it's safe to close the GH - one more week of testing 👍
