I have an Android device with an integrated barcode scanner. It is configured to add a tab character suffix so that focus should move to the next field in a form, but it fails to do so. Instead, an actual tab character is inserted in the text itself.

I know Android keyboard has a next key to navigate to next input, but I can't find the machine code it uses to provide it as a suffix for the barcode scanner. Any help wouldbe very much appreciated.

I'm not actually developping the app, but configuring the barcode scanner. The form works fine with tab on a computer.

  • If it is html, is the appropriate tabindex set for each element? [Web technology for developersSee HTML: HyperText Markup LanguageSee Global attributestabindex](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes/tabindex) If it is not html, please check the settings supported by the programming language/framework you are using. – kunif Dec 04 '20 at 02:10

  • Your application may have customized the handling of the TAB key. You should check the specifications of the application. – kunif Dec 04 '20 at 14:08
