Keyboard appearing in front of BasicTextField

Question

I have this problem in Jetpack Compose, the keyboard appears in front of my BasicTextField and does not allow me to see what the user is typing. I've already tried adjustResize, adjustPan and others and they still don't solve my problem. I found a solution that you can see below, but it seems too much and the first time it doesn't work very well, because the field only goes up a second or two after I open the keyboard - maybe it's from the emulator - but from there, it works right every time.

I leave my code below. Thanks in advance.

Does this answer your question? [TextField is hiding under the keyboard when focused](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/68116203/textfield-is-hiding-under-the-keyboard-when-focused) — nglauber, Jul 22 '22 at 12:19
This helped because I could see that I don't need as much code, but it didn't solve my problem. The first time I focus on the input, the keyboard appears and the input only goes up a few seconds later. @nglauber — R0ck, Jul 22 '22 at 13:34

According to your comment, use following in your activity manifest

<activity android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"> </activity>
