App crash with error: Unable to find JSIModule for class UIManager, after touch event on ad

Question

I've created a component to show ads in my react-native app using react-native-admob-native-ads.
It's running perfectly on most of the app screens, but on some screens, the app crashes just after the touch event on the ad, I don't understand the issue as it is fine on most of the screens, and the same component is used everywhere

This is the crash log

How to fix this?

Answer 1

This seems to be an issue in React Native 0.64.0. Someone is looking into it: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/31245#issuecomment-811587180 It's also discussed in upcoming v0.64.1 cherrypicks, so there is a possibility that it will be fixed in the next version. In the meantime it can be fixed by downgrading React Native to 0.63.4.
