I used https://github.com/FaridSafi/react-native-gifted-chat. Not perfect but way faster than me doing it from scratch. Had a hell of a time getting it to play nice on a bottom sheet though, and still feel like I had to hack in getting the keyboard to show up right.

How did you solve the issue of seeing the chat history? In the normal FlatList if you prepend items to the top of the list the scroll position flies all the way to the top, terrible UX. I had to dig around and try to fix this for an entire week. Tried inverting the FlatList which made it drop to 10 fps on my Android device, and inverting with styling caused weird empty spaces to form. Finally ended up with this small library which is mostly acceptable.
React Native: How To Build Bidirectional Infinite Scroll
4 projects | dev.to | 1 Mar 2021

FlatList from React Native accepts a prop - maintainVisibleContentPosition, which makes sure your scroll doesn't jump to the end of the list when more items are added to the list. But this prop is only supported on iOS for now. So taking some inspiration from this PR, we published our separate package to add support for this prop on Android - flat-list-mvcp. And thus @stream-io/flat-list-mvcp is a dependency of the react-native-bidirectional-scroll package.
