Advance a flow without pressing "Next" on iPad

I've created a mobile app that contains a flow where the user uses a barcode scanner to enter a job number and verify that the number is valid. The device being used is an iPad and so far my roadblock is that you can't tab over to the "Next" button like you can on Android devices. On said Android devices, the scanner I have connected to them has a suffix of a horizontal tab, then space to press the "Next" button, but it appears that ios devices don't have a similar function with how the components are rendered. Has anyone been able to overcome this obstacle? My boss is very adamant that they cannot interact with the screen to press "Next" and I'm dead in the water until I can figure it out.

Since Aura components have access to a flow screen’s navigation actions, you can fully customize how the user moves between screens. For example, hide the default navigation buttons and have the flow move to the next screen when the user selects a choice.
