How to resolve the error "Unable to validate properties of null value"?

I want to implement user authentication via phone number using Firebase.

The FirebasePhoneAuth component represents a form with an input field for the phone number and a "Send Verification Code" button. When the "Send Verification Code" button is pressed, the sendVerificationCode function is called, which sends a request to the Firebase server to send an SMS with the confirmation code to the entered phone number. After a successful request, the result will be the creation of a confirmationResult object, which stores information about the phone number and the confirmation code.

Question: When pressing the "SEND CODE" button, an error alert "cannot read property verify of undefined" occurs. How can I solve this problem?

`import React, { useState } from "react";
import { Alert, Button, StyleSheet, TextInput, View } from "react-native";
import { initializeApp } from "firebase/app";
import AsyncStorage from "@react-native-async-storage/async-storage";

// initialize Firebase App
const app = initializeApp(firebaseConfig);

const FirebasePhoneAuth = () => {

const sendVerificationCode = async () => {

// Сохранение номера телефона в AsyncStorage
await AsyncStorage.setItem("phoneNumber", phoneNumber);

} else {
Alert.alert("Ошибка", "Не удалось подтвердить номер телефона");
}
} catch (error) {
Alert.alert("Ошибка", error.message);

return (

export default FirebasePhoneAuth;`
