I am trying to use react-native-image-crop-picker. The code is given below. I already tried doing npm install react-native-image-crop-picker@latest.

Whenever i select any one of the options undefined is not an object(evaluating 'imagePicker.openPicker')is shown. Please help fixing this issue.

import React, {Component} from 'react';
import {
View, Text, StyleSheet, ScrollView, Alert,
Image, TouchableOpacity, NativeModules, Dimensions
} from 'react-native';

var ImagePicker = NativeModules.ImageCropPicker;

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    justifyContent: 'center',
    alignItems: 'center'
  },
  button: {
    backgroundColor: 'blue',
    marginBottom: 10
  },
  text: {
    color: 'white',
    fontSize: 20,
    textAlign: 'center'
  }
});

Important!!!!!!!!!!!!! After many hours of debugging. For Everyone who is using Expo. This doesn't work in EXPO while trying to build in windows. Try form this instead. https://docs.expo.dev/versions/latest/sdk/imagepicker/

I got rid of this by adding a folder react-native-image-crop-picker inside node_modules and run cd ios pod install
