VerifyOTPScreen had no way to leave the screen -- no back arrow (the shared AuthScreenWrapper has no AppBar) and no in-body cancel/back action, unlike ForgotPasswordScreen and SetNewPasswordScreen which each already have their own equivalent button. Add a "Back" CustomButton (isOutlined: true) below the Resend row, matching those two screens' existing button style. Uses NavigationService().goBack() rather than a literal "Back to Login" label/redirect, since this screen is reachable from both SignupScreen and ForgotPasswordScreen -- goBack() correctly pops to whichever one pushed it.
The Resend TextButton's onPressed was gated only by _isLoading, not the existing _canresend cooldown flag, so it remained fully tappable (just silently no-opping via _resendCode's early return) for the whole 60-second cooldown -- no visible feedback that it was inert. Gate onPressed on (_isLoading || !_canresend). Also fix the button's disabled state actually looking disabled: the "Resend" Text had a hardcoded green color that would have stayed fully green regardless of onPressed being null, since an explicitly-styled child Text isn't repainted by TextButton's automatic disabled-state dimming. Now dims to a muted onSurfaceVariant color while disabled.
Each of the 6 OTP boxes only auto-advanced focus forward on input; there was no way to move back to a previous box via backspace, and pasting a full 6-digit code did nothing useful (maxLength: 1 silently truncated a paste to its first character before onChanged ever saw it). Backspace: wrap each box in a KeyboardListener (using a dedicated, non-focus-stealing FocusNode per box) that catches a backspace keydown while the box is already empty -- onChanged never fires for that case, since no text actually changes -- and moves focus back to (clearing) the previous box. Paste: set maxLengthEnforcement: MaxLengthEnforcement.none so a full pasted string reaches onChanged instead of being truncated, add FilteringTextInputFormatter.digitsOnly so non-digit paste content is stripped, and distribute a multi-character value across the current and subsequent boxes, landing focus on the last one filled.

- Around line 423-429: Move empty-box backspace handling from the
KeyboardListener callback into the TextField/EditableText input path, ensuring
mobile IME deletion invokes _handleBackspaceOnEmpty when the focused
_controllers[index] is empty and preserves normal text editing. Update the
relevant OTP change/input handling around _handleOtpChanged and verify behavior
on Android and iOS.
- Around line 529-531: Update the async continuations in _handleVerification and
_resendCode to return immediately when the widget is no longer mounted after
each awaited SupabaseService call, before accessing results, context, or
setState. Also disable the Back action through NavigationService().goBack while
_isLoading is true if the verification flow must remain non-cancellable.

The existing backspace-to-previous-box handling relied entirely on KeyboardListener catching a raw backspace KeyEvent. That only reliably fires for hardware keyboards -- many mobile on-screen keyboards never emit a KeyEvent at all for backspace on an already-empty field, so the feature silently did nothing on a lot of Android/iOS devices despite working on web/desktop. _handleOtpChanged now treats onChanged firing with an empty value as the primary, cross-platform-reliable trigger to step focus back to the previous box: that callback only ever fires from a genuine text-change event, which every platform's text-input pipeline is guaranteed to report, including on-screen keyboards. This covers the common flow of backspacing digit-by-digit through a filled code. The existing KeyboardListener/_handleBackspaceOnEmpty path is kept as a supplementary hardware-keyboard-only path for the narrower case of pressing backspace again on a box that was already empty -- it's unchanged in behavior and doesn't conflict, since the two paths fire on different triggers (a real text change vs. a raw key event with no text change).
…ng pending requests The Back button remained enabled while a verify/resend request was in flight (_isLoading == true), so a user could navigate away mid- request; the async continuation would then call setState or touch context after this screen was already disposed. Add `if (!mounted) return;` immediately after both await calls in this file (_handleVerification's verifyOTP call, _resendCode's resendVerificationEmail call) and at the top of both their catch blocks, before any subsequent setState/context/Navigator usage. The existing finally blocks' own `if (mounted)` guards are untouched. Also disable the Back button while _isLoading is true, matching how the Resend button is already disabled during loading -- this is a UX improvement on top of the mounted-check safety net, not a replacement for it, so a user can no longer even attempt to navigate away mid-request in the first place.

@g-k-s-03 From POW I meant to add a demo video of showing backspacing works, code pasting works and how back button also works. |

Closes #327
Description
Addresses three separate usability gaps on the OTP verification screen (
VerifyOTPScreen), each identified during manual testing of the auth flow. None of these were previously flagged or fixed elsewhere in the codebase — they're small, independent issues that happened to live on the same screen, so this PR bundles them together for review efficiency while keeping the code changes cleanly separated across three commits.Problems
No way to leave the screen.
VerifyOTPScreenhad no back arrow (the sharedAuthScreenWrappercomponent has noAppBar) and no in-body cancel/back button, unlikeForgotPasswordScreenandSetNewPasswordScreen, which each already implement their own equivalent button. A user who reaches this screen and changes their mind — whether mid-signup or mid-password-reset — has no in-app way out.Resend button gave no real feedback during its cooldown. After requesting a code, there's a 60-second cooldown before another can be sent, tracked by an existing
_canresendflag. However, the button'sonPressedwas only gated on_isLoading, not_canresend— so during the cooldown, the button remained fully clickable-looking. Tapping it silently no-opped via an early return inside_resendCode(), giving the user no indication the tap did anything (or why it didn't).The 6-digit code input had no backspace-to-previous-box or paste support. Each box only auto-advanced focus forward as digits were typed. There was no way to press backspace on an empty box to jump back and correct a previous digit, and pasting a full 6-digit code (e.g. copied from an email or SMS, which is how most users actually enter OTP codes) did nothing useful —
maxLength: 1silently truncated any paste down to a single character before the input'sonChangedhandler ever saw the rest.Changes Made
Commit 1 — Back button
Added a
CustomButton(isOutlined: true)below the Resend row, usingNavigationService().goBack()rather than a hardcoded "Back to Login" redirect. This screen is reachable from bothSignupScreenandForgotPasswordScreen, sogoBack()correctly returns the user to whichever flow brought them here, rather than assuming one specific origin.Commit 2 — Resend cooldown fix
Changed the button's
onPressedcondition to(_isLoading || !_canresend) ? null : _resendCode. Also caught and fixed a related issue while implementing this: the "Resend" text had a hardcodedColors.green.shade400style, which would have stayed fully green even withonPressed: null— Flutter's automatic disabled-button dimming doesn't override an explicitly-styled child widget. The text now switches to a dimmedonSurfaceVariantcolor when disabled, so the inert state is now genuinely visible, not just functionally inert.Commit 3 — OTP backspace and paste support
KeyboardListener(using a dedicated, non-focus-stealingFocusNodeper box —skipTraversal: true,canRequestFocus: false) that intercepts a backspace keydown specifically when the box is already empty. This case can't be detected viaonChangedalone, since no text change actually occurs when backspacing an empty field.maxLengthEnforcement: MaxLengthEnforcement.noneso a full pasted string reachesonChangedinstead of being truncated to one character beforehand, and addedFilteringTextInputFormatter.digitsOnlyto strip any non-digit characters from both typed and pasted input (sincekeyboardType: TextInputType.numberalone doesn't block a clipboard paste containing letters). TheonChangedhandler now detects a multi-character value and distributes its digits across the current and subsequent boxes, landing focus on the last box filled.Screen.Recording.2026-09-23.022904.mp4
