Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

The selected option is not highlighted.

What is the root cause of that problem?

Coming from this PR #70042

We converted to use SelectionListWithSections but forgot to add shouldUpdateFocusedIndex and initiallyFocusedOptionKey prop

App/src/pages/settings/Profile/CustomStatus/StatusClearAfterPage.tsx

Lines 177 to 185 in a419fc3

	<SelectionList
	sections={[{data: statusType}]}
	ListItem={RadioListItem}
	onSelectRow={updateMode}
	listFooterContent={listFooterContent}
	showConfirmButton
	confirmButtonText={translate('statusPage.save')}
	onConfirm={saveAndGoBack}
	/>

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

We should add shouldUpdateFocusedIndex and initiallyFocusedOptionKey props

    <SelectionList
        sections={[{data: statusType}]}
        ListItem={RadioListItem}
        onSelectRow={updateMode}
        listFooterContent={listFooterContent}
        showConfirmButton
        initiallyFocusedOptionKey={statusType.find((item) => item.isSelected)?.keyForList}
        shouldUpdateFocusedIndex
        confirmButtonText={translate('statusPage.save')}
        onConfirm={saveAndGoBack}
    />
