Explicit	1	This constant was deprecated in API level 37. InputMethodManager.SHOW_IMPLICIT is deprecated therefore this flag becomes the default. There is no need to pass it anymore. Flag for showSoftInput(int, ResultReceiver): this show has been explicitly requested by the user. If not set, the system has decided it may be a good idea to show the input method based on a navigation operation in the UI.

If set, the input method should remain visible until deliberately dismissed by the user in its UI. Android reference for `android.view.inputmethod.InputMethod.SHOW_FORCED`.
