@hurali97 Can you please flesh this issue out with a problem/solution statement? Thanks!

Problem:

The user is unable to select text in the composer. See the below video:

Solution:

The issue is originating from the usage of MarkDownTextInput in the composer. If we replace MarkDownTextInput with TextInput from react-native the issue is fixed. See the below video:

The solution here is not to replace MarkDownTextInput but rather fix the root cause inside of this library. Folks from SWM worked on this library and they are the best fit to take this from here but in case they don't have the bandwidth, we can help narrowing down this issue and fixing it at the root.
