@Ammar-Abid92 from 0.21.x onwards I moved to a new base class to ensure compatibility with 0.77 and onwards.
Sadly that means incompatibility with RN < 0.74 and you are using 0.73. so you will have to upgrade RN or keep using the 0.19.x
But I forgot to write that in the docs, sorry. Will update the docs
