It crashes when users land on Webview. It could be one minute after land, or it could be 2 seconds after land - we don't see particular steps to reproduce it.

Newer Version of React Native is Available!

ℹ️

You are on a supported minor version, but it looks like there's a newer patch available - 0.72.6. Please upgrade to the highest patch for your minor or latest and verify if the issue persists (alternatively, create a new project and repro the issue in it). If it does not repro, please let us know so we can close out this issue. This helps us ensure we are looking at issues that still exist in the most recent releases.

We can't fix it without a reproducer sadly

[cortinico]

Closing as reproducer was never provided

[abdulragib]

Exception thrown when executing

UIFrameGuarded

Attempt to invoke interface method 'void com.facebook.react.uimanager.ViewManag erDelegate.setProperty(android.view.View, java.lang.String, java.lang.Object)' on a null object reference. < This is the error I encounter whenever I start my react
native/expo project via the expogo app. Any solutions ?

[devBuggs]

Does anyone get any resolution?

[KyleFletcher]

I'm sure this is not the best place for this, but this was the only issue that I found here with this error. I started getting this after attempting to update to 0.79.2. What fixed it for me was to also upgrade.

@react-navigation/native
@react-navigation/native-stack
react-native-permissions
react-native-safe-area-context 
react-native-screens

Unsure which one was causing it, but hope this helps someone.

Gey guys just had this error as well and updating Expo Go along with rn packages fixed it for me:
