VerificationCodeInputField: iPad Return key clears/hides OTP fields #1407
Description
Environment:
- Swift, iPadOS version: all, FirebaseUI version: do not know exactly (Podfile.lock), Xcode: found it while testing
Steps:
- Present view using VerificationCodeInputField (e.g. PhoneReauthView)
- Focus OTP field on iPad with hardware keyboard
- Press Return repeatedly
Observed: fields disappear one-by-one, unrecoverable without back+Verify
Expected: Return resigns/dismisses or no-ops, fields stay visible
Relevant: FirebaseSwiftUI/FirebaseAuthUIComponents/Sources/Components/VerificationCodeInputField.swift - BackspaceAwareTextField.Coordinator has no textFieldShouldReturn, shouldChangeCharactersIn only blocks non-digits but Return path can hit handleBackspace/clear.

Hi @amansingh1207 , thanks for raising this. I see you've created a PR to fix this issue, I'll review that and keep this issue updated.

Thanks @demolaf for taking a look!
The PR #1408 fixes VerificationCodeInputField so iPad hardware Return just resigns focus (textFieldShouldReturn → resignFirstResponder + return false) instead of mutating/clearing digit fields. I also removed the newline guard so pasting codes with trailing \n (from SMS/email) still works — the existing digitsOnly filter already blocks lone Return presses.
Happy to add a UI test for this in a follow-up PR.
Looking forward to your feedback!

Hi @amansingh1207, I couldn't reproduce this on
main(iPad simulator, hardware keyboard, sign-in andPhoneReauthView): Return only reachestextFieldShouldReturnand never clears the fields.Can you still reproduce it consistently? If so, please share your FirebaseUI and iPadOS versions, keyboard setup, and a short screen recording.
