How to setInterval for every 5 second render with React hook useEffect in React Native app?

I have React Native app and I get data from API by fetch. I created custom hook that get data from API. And i need to re-render it every 5 seconds. For it I wrapped my custom hook to setInterval and after my app become work very slowly and when I navigate to another screen I get this error:

Can't perform a React state update on an unmounted component. This is a no-op, but it indicates a memory leak in your application. To fix, cancel all subscriptions and asynchronous tasks in a useEffect cleanup function.

Can you tell me please how can I solve this bug and which will be the best way to setInterval, because I think my way is not good.

My custom hook:

export const useFetch = url => {
  const [state, setState] = useState({ data: null, error: false, loading: true })

  useEffect(() => {
    setInterval(() => {
      setState(state => ({ data: state.data, error: false, loading: true }))
      fetch(url)
        .then(data => data.json())
        .then(obj =>
          Object.keys(obj).map(key => {
            let newData = obj[key]
            newData.key = key
            return newData
          })
        )
        .then(newData => setState({ data: newData, error: false, loading: false }))
        .catch(function(error) {
          console.log(error)
          setState({ data: null, error: true, loading: false })
        })
    }, 5000)
  }, [url, useState])
  useEffect(() => () => console.log('unmount'), [])
  return state
}

My Component:

const ChartsScreen = ({ navigation }) => {
  const { container } = styles
  const url = 'https://poloniex.com/public?command=returnTicker'
  const { data, error, loading } = useFetch(url)

  const percentColorHandler = number => {
    return number >= 0 ? true : false
  }

  return (
    <View style={container}>
      <ProjectStatusBar />
      <IconsHeader
        dataError={false}
        header="Charts"
        leftIconName="ios-arrow-back"
        leftIconPress={() => navigation.navigate('Welcome')}
      />
      <ChartsHeader />
      <ActivityIndicator animating={loading} color="#068485" style={{ top: HP('30%') }} size="small" />
      <FlatList
        data={data}
        keyExtractor={item => item.key}
        renderItem={({ item }) => (
          <CryptoItem
            name={item.key}
            highBid={item.highestBid}
            lastBid={item.last}
            percent={item.percentChange}
            percentColor={percentColorHandler(item.percentChange)}
          />
        )}
      />
    </View>
  )
}

You need to clear your interval,

useEffect(() => {
  const intervalId = setInterval(() => {  //assign interval to a variable to clear it.
    setState(state => ({ data: state.data, error: false, loading: true }))
    fetch(url)
      .then(data => data.json())
      .then(obj =>
        Object.keys(obj).map(key => {
          let newData = obj[key]
          newData.key = key
          return newData
        })
     )
     .then(newData => setState({ data: newData, error: false, loading: false }))
     .catch(function(error) {
        console.log(error)
        setState({ data: null, error: true, loading: false })
     })
  }, 5000)

  return () => clearInterval(intervalId); //This is important
 
}, [url, useState])
