[FIXED] react-native-keyboard-aware-scroll-view not working properly

Issue

I am trying to use the react-native-keyboard-aware-scroll-view so the keyboard doesn't cover my inputs.

For some reason it always thinks there is a keyboard active I guess because it always compresses everything.

Attached is a picture of what is happening as well as the code. Any chance anyone has any idea whats happening here? I've been playing around with it for awhile and have had no luck. I'm running react-native v 0.33 and react-native-keyboard-aware-scroll-view v 0.2.1.

import { KeyboardAwareScrollView } from 'react-native-keyboard-aware-scroll-view';


class LoginIOS extends Component{

  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.login = this.login.bind(this);
    this.renderScene = this.renderScene.bind(this);
    this.state={
      username: '',
      password: ''
    };
  }

  render() {
    return (
      <Navigator
          renderScene={this.renderScene}
          navigator={this.props.navigator}
          navigationBar={
            <Navigator.NavigationBar style={{backgroundColor: 'transparent'}}
                routeMapper={NavigationBarRouteMapper} />
          } />
    );
  }

  renderScene() {
    return (
    <KeyboardAwareScrollView>
      <View style={styles.container}>
        <Spinner visible={this.state.visible} />

                </TouchableOpacity>
            </View>

        </View>

        <TouchableHighlight
          underlayColor="#D6AB00"
          onPress={this.login}
          style={styles.signInButtonContainer}>
          <Text style={styles.signInText}>Sign In</Text>
        </TouchableHighlight>

      </View>
    </KeyboardAwareScrollView>

    );
  }

Solution

I solved this problem by using another lib. Not sure why the react-native-keyboard-aware-scroll-view doesn't work but if you implement the react-native-keyboard-aware-view you shouldn't have any problems.
