Embedding heavy native iOS components—like MKMapView , WKWebView , or a complex UITableView —inside a Compose Multiplatform (CMP) layout is a common architectural requirement. However, it introduces a notorious class of bugs involving gesture contention and performance degradation. The specific symptoms are painful: The "Slippery" Map: You try to pan a map embedded in a scrollable screen, but the entire screen scrolls instead. The Recomposition Stutter: As the parent container scrolls, the embedded native view flickers, lags, or resets its state because the UIKitView bridge is aggressively invoking the update block. Here is the root cause analysis and the production-grade fix for managing UIKitView scroll conflicts and lifecycle events on iOS. The Why: Gesture Arenas and Render Loops To understand why this breaks, you have to understand how Compose Multiplatform renders on iOS. 1. The Gesture Arena Compose UI im...
