ios 12.2 beta - focus on text element doesn't open keyboard

[yosikal]

I tested my Ionic App on iOS 12.2 beta and found out that keyboard is not being opened when focusing on text element. It seems like that element isn't getting focused at all. This works perfectly on previous iOS versions and also works on 12.2 if I remove the cordova-plugin-ionic-webview.

To be clear, what you mean is that programmatically focusing a field doesn't work, right?

Like doing document.getElementById("focusme").focus(); should focus the field and show the keyboard, but it doesn't?

[yosikal]

Correct.

Experiencing something along the same lines on Android (iOS is fine), but I got no clear case to describe yet. We've been in process of upgrading Cordova (what a mess...), plugins etc, now more or less functional using cordova 9.0.0, cordova-ios 5.0.0, cordova-android 8.0.0, cordova-plugin-ionic-webview 2.4.0.
We have a few instances of using .setFocus on TextInput's (Ionic 3.9.4).

It keeps not working for me.
I am using:

Cordova 8
Npm 6.9.0

I am having problems on iOs not on Android

Also, when I am setting HideKeyboardFormAccessoryBar to false, the accessoryBar shows but not the keyboard/selector. This is weird. Keyboard.show() don't work neither.

I'm still seeing this issue. When calling focus(), the keyboard "tries" to focus on the input element and display the keyboard, but then quickly retreats. I'm on iOS 11.4.1 and cordova-plugin-ionic-webview 4.1.1.
