Getting an Android Specific error

I get this error and it seems to be when the webview is unmounting.

Attempt to write to field 'java.util.ArrayList im.shimo.react.webview.AdvancedWebViewManager$AdvancedWebViewClient.mPendingMessages' on a null object reference

The React Native Repo has an issue open here. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, especially if anyone has seen this before.

Using:

React Native: 0.57.7
React: 16.6.3
android {
    compileSdkVersion 26
    buildToolsVersion '27.0.3'
    defaultConfig {
        minSdkVersion 21
        targetSdkVersion 26
        versionCode 1
        versionName version
        multiDexEnabled true
        ndk {
            abiFilters "armeabi-v7a", "x86"
        }
    }
}

@matthewfbenjamin Did you manage to solve this issue? I see there were commits which seems to fix the issue but I am still having this problem with the latest version

@BenitoP Sorry mate, I just decided to use the react-native-community webview as I didn't need the advanced features
