react-native-paper-dropdown crashes expo app on android

[nibble0101]

I started tinkering with React Native Paper recently before stumbling on this package. This package works fine in development. The android project even builds successfully using EAS. Unfortunately, clicking the dropdown crashes the app entirely both on a physical device and emulator. I'm not sure whether the problem is with expo or this project.

You can see it works fine here in development. To reproduce the problem, perhaps follow this guide to build the apk and install it on an emulator or a physical android device.

Sure! I'm using react-native-paper v5.12.5. Below are the other dependencies.

 "dependencies": {
    "@expo/vector-icons": "^14.0.2",
    "expo": "~51.0.31",
    "expo-checkbox": "~3.0.0",
    "expo-constants": "~16.0.2",
    "expo-status-bar": "~1.12.1",
    "react": "18.2.0",
    "react-native": "0.74.5",
    "react-native-paper": "^5.12.5",

    "react-native-safe-area-context": "4.10.5",
    "expo-linking": "~6.3.1",
    "expo-dev-client": "~4.0.25"
  },

I am experiencing the same issue. In LogCat I can see the following exception.

Error: Looks like you forgot to wrap your root component with `Provider` component from `react-native-paper`.

Please read our getting-started guide and make sure you've followed all the required steps.

This error is located at:

And just to be very clear I do have a theme provider at the top of my app.

I also have the same versions as other people above in this post.

Are you guys wrapping the code with both providers?

`

  </ThemeProvider>

Are you guys wrapping the code with both providers?

`

  </PaperProvider>
  </ThemeProvider>

@HenrikJohnson @krylov-mihail @nibble0101

I'm wrapping only in </PaperProvider.

same problem for me too, and I'm wrapping with both PaperProvider and ThemeProvider.
