Troubleshooting

If the component does not work as expected, try cleaning your React Native project. This can often resolve issues related to build artifacts or outdated dependencies.

To clean your React Native project, follow these steps:

1. Clear the npm cache:

   npm cache clean --force

2. Delete the node_modules directory:

   rm -rf node_modules

3. Reinstall the dependencies:

   npm install

4. If you are using CocoaPods for iOS dependencies, also clean and reinstall the pods:

   cd ios
   pod deintegrate
   pod install
   cd ..

5. Reset the Metro bundler cache:

   npm start -- --reset-cache

By performing these steps, you should resolve most common issues. If the problem persists, consider checking for open issues on the GitHub repository or opening a new issue for help.
