Current behavior:

When opening a prompt alert (https://ionicframework.com/docs/components/#alert-prompt) on the iPhone 5s (ios 10.3.1), the input of the alert gets the focus and the keyboard pops up. The input immediately looses the focus and the keyboard pops out without having done anything... The behaviour on Android is correct, the keyboard stays open and the input keeps the focus. I'm using Ionic 3.0.1 on both operating systems.

Expected behavior:

The keyboard must stay open and the input must keep the focus after the prompt alert is presented.

Steps to reproduce:

• Present a simple prompt alert like in your documenation (https://ionicframework.com/docs/components/#alert-prompt)
• On ios you will see that the input in the alert prompt immediately looses the focus now.

I ran into the same issue. Maybe related to #11114.
Focus stays with
<ion-item text-wrap detail-push (click)="openAlert()">...</ion-item>

Focus lost with
<button text-wrap detail-push (click)="openAlert()">...</button>

Focus also lost with
<ion-item text-wrap detail-push (tap)="openAlert()">...</ion-item>

I have the same issue.
If you hold the button which triggers the prompt alert for a while like 3 seconds, and then release, the keyboard shows properly after prompt alert. If your click happens fast (normal speed), the keyboard shows then disappears.
Waiting for someone to solve it

this seems to be working now with ionic version 3.2.1

I am encountering this issue in the iOS simulator in Ionic 3.12.0 when using a hardware keyboard. To fix you can just toggle the software keyboard in the simulator. Then it works well.
