[CP Staging] Fix iOS - Home - Concierge prompt box remains expanded after sending attachment by GCyganek · Pull Request #99537 · Expensify/App

GCyganek · 2026-08-26T08:59:26Z

Explanation of Change

On iOS native, clearing the Concierge prompt's controlled value didn't reset the native input, so the composer stayed expanded (multi-line height) after sending. ConciergePromptBox now holds an useAnimatedRef on the Composer and calls forceClearInput via scheduleOnUI in clearInput, matching the pattern already used in ComposerWithSuggestions.

Reviewer Checklist

I have verified the author checklist is complete (all boxes are checked off).
I verified the correct issue is linked in the ### Fixed Issues section above
I verified testing steps are clear and they cover the changes made in this PR
- I verified the steps for local testing are in the Tests section
- I verified the steps for Staging and/or Production testing are in the QA steps section
- I verified the steps cover any possible failure scenarios (i.e. verify an input displays the correct error message if the entered data is not correct)
- I turned off my network connection and tested it while offline to ensure it matches the expected behavior (i.e. verify the default avatar icon is displayed if app is offline)
I checked that screenshots or videos are included for tests on all platforms
I included screenshots or videos for tests on all platforms
I verified that the composer does not automatically focus or open the keyboard on mobile unless explicitly intended. This includes checking that returning the app from the background does not unexpectedly open the keyboard.
I verified tests pass on all platforms & I tested again on:
- Android: HybridApp
- Android: mWeb Chrome
- iOS: HybridApp
- iOS: mWeb Safari
- MacOS: Chrome / Safari
If there are any errors in the console that are unrelated to this PR, I either fixed them (preferred) or linked to where I reported them in Slack
I verified proper code patterns were followed (see Reviewing the code)
- I verified that comments were added to code that is not self explanatory
- I verified that any new or modified comments were clear, correct English, and explained "why" the code was doing something instead of only explaining "what" the code was doing.
- I verified any copy / text that was added to the app is grammatically correct in English. It adheres to proper capitalization guidelines (note: only the first word of header/labels should be capitalized), and is either coming verbatim from figma or has been approved by marketing (in order to get marketing approval, ask the Bug Zero team member to add the Waiting for copy label to the issue)
If a new code pattern is added I verified it was agreed to be used by multiple Expensify engineers
I verified that this PR follows the guidelines as stated in the Review Guidelines
I verified other components that can be impacted by these changes have been tested, and I retested again (i.e. if the PR modifies a shared library or component like Avatar, I verified the components using Avatar have been tested & I retested again)
If a new component is created I verified that:
- A similar component doesn't exist in the codebase
- All props are defined accurately
- The component has a clear name that is non-ambiguous and the purpose of the component can be inferred from the name alone
- The only data being stored in the state is data necessary for rendering and nothing else
- The component has the minimum amount of code necessary for its purpose, and it is broken down into smaller components in order to separate concerns and functions
If a new CSS style is added I verified that:
- A similar style doesn't already exist
- The style can't be created with an existing StyleUtils function (i.e. StyleUtils.getBackgroundAndBorderStyle(theme.componentBG)
If the PR modifies code that runs when editing or sending messages, I tested and verified there is no unexpected behavior for all supported markdown - URLs, single line code, code blocks, quotes, headings, bold, strikethrough, and italic.
If the PR modifies a generic component, I tested and verified that those changes do not break usages of that component in the rest of the App (i.e. if a shared library or component like Avatar is modified, I verified that Avatar is working as expected in all cases)
If the PR modifies a component related to any of the existing Storybook stories, I tested and verified all stories for that component are still working as expected.
If the PR modifies a component or page that can be accessed by a direct deeplink, I verified that the code functions as expected when the deeplink is used - from a logged in and logged out account.
If the PR modifies the UI (e.g. new buttons, new UI components, changing the padding/spacing/sizing, moving components, etc) or modifies the form input styles:
- I verified that all the inputs inside a form are aligned with each other.
- I added Design label and/or tagged @Expensify/design so the design team can review the changes.
For any bug fix or new feature in this PR, I verified that sufficient unit tests are included to prevent regressions in this flow.
If the main branch was merged into this PR after a review, I tested again and verified the outcome was still expected according to the Test steps.
I have checked off every checkbox in the PR reviewer checklist, including those that don't apply to this PR.

🤖 No help site changes required.

This PR is a purely technical bug fix — on iOS native, clearing the Concierge prompt's controlled value didn't reset the native input, so the composer stayed expanded after sending an attachment. The fix uses an useAnimatedRef + forceClearInput to force the native input to clear, matching the existing ComposerWithSuggestions pattern.

It restores the expected/correct behavior of an existing UI element and introduces no new user-facing feature, workflow, setting, label, or terminology.

Why no docs update is needed

The only changed file is src/pages/home/ForYouSection/ConciergePromptBox.tsx — a native-input reset fix, not a behavior/feature change users would read about.
A search of App/docs/articles found no help-site article that documents the Concierge prompt box or its expand/collapse behavior, so there is nothing to update.
Help-site articles document features, workflows, billing, and how-tos — not internal composer state handling.

Since no changes are required, I did not create a draft help site PR.

🤖 No help site changes required (re-confirmed).

I already reviewed this PR — it's a purely technical iOS-native bug fix (forcing the Concierge prompt's native input to clear so the composer collapses after sending an attachment). It touches only src/pages/home/ForYouSection/ConciergePromptBox.tsx, adds no user-facing feature/workflow/setting/terminology, and no article under App/docs/articles documents this behavior. No draft help site PR was created because none is needed.
