Description

Current behavior

I built my app with xcode beta 4 for iOS 26 ( ios26 ) and the top of my content in presentation: "modal" was hidden under the header:

Added headerStyle: { backgroundColor: "red" }, to show that it really hidden under header:

Expected behavior

I expect that content will be rendered below the header for both old iOS 18.6 and iOS 26.
By adding this workaround: contentStyle: { paddingTop: Platform.OS === "ios" && Number(Platform.Version) >= 26 ? 24 : 0 } I reached the expected result. But having things like so in the code base is bad practice; these things should be handled inside the lib globally.

Expected result:

Expected result with red header:

Steps to reproduce

1. Build your app with Xcode Beta 4 for ios26
2. Create a screen with presentation: "modal"
3. Open it when at least title in header exist
4. See the issue with current behavior
