Description

Calling focus from code behind on an input element (Entry, DatePicker, TimePicker) does not display the keyboard to the user. Element is still focused, and manually tapping the element after this does not bring up the keyboard either as the element still has focus.
Works as expected in Android, but not iOS.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Create two entry fields.
  2. Add an Focused event to the first entry that calls Focus() on the second Entry.
  3. Tap the first Entry field.

Expected Behavior

Second Entry field receives focus and displays the keyboard for typing.

Actual Behavior

Second Entry field receives focus, but no keyboard is displayed. Tapping the second entry again does not display the keyboard either since the entry still has focus.
