@Xiaohui0503, I see that in documentation it's suggested to use navigationMode="composite" but when I removed it, the tooltip started showing up. Probably this bug is not with Tooltip, but with the List/ListItem components.
Also, I noticed that Tooltip appears only while navigating inside of a list item. But Tooltip is not shown when the user goes from the top level of ListItem.

Hi @ValentinaKozlova , if I remove navigationMode="composite", the second button in the second list item will not be reached. Besides, in the List component document, it also suggest to use navigationMode="composite" when there are focusable elements inside each list item. (document list)

For the second point, I also find that this tooltip doesn't work when the user goes from the top level of ListItem. And tooltip will show while navigating inside of a list item.

I debug this code, and find maybe there is the root cause. (code link) Here, the isFocusedProgrammatically is true, but I'm confused why isNavigatingWithKeyboard is false here. Due to this condition, the next focus event is ignored.
