Background
When a user has a bluetooth scanner connected, phone may make it unable to manually enter a weight.
Why? The phone recognizes the scanner as a keyboard, and hides the on-screen keyboard so the user cant type.
This is mainly an iOS issue, there is a work-around on Android that requires a user to enable a system accessibility keyboard setting.
We have the options above for the fixes. Good news worst comes to worst use your phone camera to scan tags.
