sane here any fix ?

The workaround now is to use Pressable from react-native-gesture-handler instead for Android ONLY

I also needed to add tapGestureEnabled={false} in order to make it work...we need a new version ASAP

Try to use this fork, it worked for me https://github.com/yuliswe/react-native-modalize

Just another option as I also had this issue. I've replaced my pressable component to this (acts like touchable opacity) and have no problems so far 😄

import { useState } from 'react';
import { Gesture, GestureDetector, RectButton } from 'react-native-gesture-handler';

export const Pressable = ({
  disabled = false,
  children,
  style = {},
  onPress,
}) => {
  const [pressed, setPressed] = useState(false);

  const tap = Gesture.Tap()
    .enabled(!disabled)
    .runOnJS(true)
    .onBegin(() => setPressed(true))
    .onEnd((_event, success) => {
      setPressed(false);
      if (success) {
        onPress?.(_event);
      }
    })
    .onFinalize(() => setPressed(false));

  return (
    <GestureDetector gesture={tap}>
      <RectButton
        enabled={!disabled}
        rippleColor="rgba(0,0,0,0)"
        style={[
          { opacity: pressed ? 0.3 : 1 },
          style,
        ]}
      >
        {children}
      </RectButton>
    </GestureDetector>
  );
};

We encountered the same situation, environment is Expo 53.
Finally found that it works after turning off the New Architecture enabled setting.
