I have created an app for iOS using React Native. I've gotten the app to a point where it works on the iPhone simulator via the Expo App. It even works when creating a build of the app to distribute using TestFlight. Now, I want to add Google Ads into the app. However, I've learned that Google Ads won't work via an Expo build. Instead one has to create a development build to test the ads in the app and see how they look. I've also finally been able to compile a successful development build using eas (expo application services). When I install the app on the simulator and try to open it however, the app crashes almost immediately and I don't know why. I have tried deciphering the symbolicated crash report, but I have not been able to figure out what could be causing the error. It looks like it has something to do with the user interface. Below is the thread where the app crashes: Thread 0 Crashed:: Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread 0 libsystem_kernel.dylib 0x11324a14a __pthread_kill + 10 1 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x1132abebd pthread_kill + 262 2 libsystem_c.dylib 0x7ff80016dd1c abort + 133 3 libc++abi.dylib 0x7ff8002c6d12 abort_message + 241 4 libc++abi.dylib 0x7ff8002b951a demangling_terminate_handler() + 266 5 libobjc.A.dylib 0x7ff800061fba _objc_terminate() + 96 6 libc++abi.dylib 0x7ff8002c616b std::__terminate(void (*)()) + 6 7 libc++abi.dylib 0x7ff8002c6126 std::terminate() + 54 8 libdispatch.dylib 0x7ff8001796ec _dispatch_client_callout + 28 9 libdispatch.dylib 0x7ff80017d1e2 _dispatch_block_invoke_direct + 508 10 FrontBoardServices 0x7ff807a8b3a7 __FBSSERIALQUEUE_IS_CALLING_OUT_TO_A_BLOCK__ + 30 11 FrontBoardServices 0x7ff807a8b281 -[FBSMainRunLoopSerialQueue _targetQueue_performNextIfPossible] + 188 12 FrontBoardServices 0x7ff807a8b3cf -[FBSMainRunLoopSerialQueue _performNextFromRunLoopSource] + 19 13 CoreFoundation 0x7ff800429ff3 __CFRUNLOOP_IS_CALLING_OUT_TO_A_SOURCE0_PERFORM_FUNCTION__ + 17 14 CoreFoundation 0x7ff800429f35 __CFRunLoopDoSource0 + 157 15 CoreFoundation 0x7ff800429732 __CFRunLoopDoSources0 + 215 16 CoreFoundation 0x7ff800423e67 __CFRunLoopRun + 919 17 CoreFoundation 0x7ff8004236ed CFRunLoopRunSpecific + 557 18 GraphicsServices 0x7ff8103ba08f GSEventRunModal + 137 19 UIKitCore 0x7ff805cdf6ee -[UIApplication _run] + 972 20 UIKitCore 0x7ff805ce416e UIApplicationMain + 123 21 LeftOff 0x10f870380 main + 96 22 dyld_sim 0x112d3a3e0 start_sim + 10 23 dyld 0x113d57366 start + 1942 I have been trying to solve this for some days now and could really use some help. I have tried changing versions of dependencies in my app too, with a focus on those that manage the UI. For example, I have changed packages such as react-native-ranimated, react-navigation/stack, react-native-gesture-handler, and react-native-screens to name a few. Nothing has worked so far. Please help.
