Hi There, we have built an app in React Native and have released it on IOS and Andriod. We have had reports of the white screen of death on IOS devices and so far only on iPhone 8s. The white screen appears not on the home screen or after splash screen but when taking steps beyond the home screen.

We have no issues on the simulator and therefore it is really hard to track an find. Let us know if you have any tips or start points?

Hey, unfortunately I can safely say I haven’t come across a white screen issue on any of the apps I’ve made. The only thing close is at the start screen where either the app is not registered or the packager is having issues.

Very late to this post, but best I can suggest is to get the phone and build/ run the app from xcode. You will typically get much better errors than the command line.
