@wilbertaristo you can replace it by grabbing the native id from the currentlyFocusedInput object:

  // replace currentlyFocusedField with this:
  const { _nativeTag } = TextInputState.currentlyFocusedInput();

@jforaker that works! thank you so much :) btw to prevent TypeScript from giving me errors I modified the above into:

const { _nativeTag } = (TextInputState as any).currentlyFocusedInput();

@wilbertaristo can u please post here updated typescript class

cause of UIManager.measure also depricated.
