Because bootstrap apply tabindex=-1 on the modal which remove the autofocus...So try to use shown.bs.modal method of bootstrap modal

Stack Snippet

$('.modal').on('shown.bs.modal', function() {
  $(this).find('[autofocus]').focus();
});

Add autofocus attribute to input in modal after that.

add this in script

$('#yourModal').on('shown.bs.modal', function() {
      $(this).find('[autofocus]').focus();
});

Solution 3:[3]

var myModal = document.getElementById('myModal')
var myInput = document.getElementById('myInput')

myModal.addEventListener('shown.bs.modal', function () {
  myInput.focus()
})
