How to close the virtual keyboard from a Jetpack Compose TextField?

With the 1.0.x you can use the LocalSoftwareKeyboardController class to control the current software keyboard and then use the hide method:

var text by remember { mutableStateOf(TextFieldValue("Text")) }val keyboardController = LocalSoftwareKeyboardController.currentTextField(        value = text,        onValueChange = {            text = it        },        label = { Text("Label") },        keyboardOptions = KeyboardOptions(imeAction = ImeAction.Done),        keyboardActions = KeyboardActions(                onDone = {keyboardController?.hide()}))

Starting from compose 1.0.0-alpha12 (and still valid in compose 1.0.4) the onImeActionPerformed is deprecated and suggested approach is to use keyboardActions with combination of keyboardOptions:

    val focusManager = LocalFocusManager.current    OutlinedTextField(        value = ...,        onValueChange = ...,        label = ...,        keyboardActions = KeyboardActions(onDone = { focusManager.clearFocus() }),        keyboardOptions = KeyboardOptions.Default.copy(imeAction = ImeAction.Done, keyboardType = KeyboardType.Password),    )

focusManager.clearFocus() will take care of dismissing the soft keyboard.

In 1.0.0 you can either use SoftwareKeyboardController or FocusManager to do this.

This answer focuses on their differences.

Setup:

var text by remember { mutableStateOf("")}TextField(    value = text,    onValueChange = { text = it },    keyboardOptions = KeyboardOptions(imeAction = ImeAction.Done),    keyboardActions = KeyboardActions(onDone = { /* TODO */ }),)

SoftwareKeyboardController:

Based on @Gabriele Mariottis answer.

val keyboardController = LocalSoftwareKeyboardController.current// TODO =keyboardController?.hide()

This only closes the keyboard, but does NOT clear the focus from any focused TextField (note the cursor & thick underline).

FocusManager:

Based on @azizbekians answer.

val focusManager = LocalFocusManager.current// TODO =focusManager.clearFocus()

This closes the keyboard AND clears the focus from the TextField.
