What/Why?

On Android, a long-press on a link in T3 Code sometimes opens two things at once: the link menu (onLinkLongPress) and the view's own long-press. In a paragraph that is text selection with its toolbar; in a table cell it is the table's Copy / Copy as Markdown menu.

Cause: View.onTouchEvent posts the view's long-press callback before LinkLongPressMovementMethod sees ACTION_DOWN and posts the link runnable with the same timeout. The runnable calls widget.cancelLongPress(), but that only helps when it runs first. On a Galaxy S25 Ultra the view's callback ran 1-11 ms first in most presses, so both fired.

Fix: scheduleLongPress calls widget.cancelLongPress(). It only runs for an ACTION_DOWN on a link, so a long-press on plain text is unchanged. The same 4 lines go into both Android implementations.

Upstream: software-mansion#1011 (open, unreviewed). This is the same commit, cherry-picked onto fork/t3-mobile without conflicts. It can be dropped when the fork syncs past the upstream merge. The full cause and the per-gesture before/after table are in that PR.

Testing

• On this branch: ./gradlew :ui:testDebugUnitTest --tests "*LinkLongPressInteractionTest*" and :ui:ktlintCheck pass. The test fails without the fix (the view's long-click also fires) and passes with it. ktlint 1.8.0 passes on the changed React Native file.
• Device: release build of T3 Code with this patch on a Galaxy S25 Ultra (Android 16). Table cell link: link menu only, 5 of 5 (before: two menus on 2 of 3). Paragraph link: link menu only, 2 of 2 (before: menu plus text selection, 3 of 3). Long-press on plain text and table text unchanged.

Before:

before-double-menus.mp4

After:

after-single-menu.mp4

iOS is unchanged.
