Hey,
from time to time I get the following error in our logs:

I'm seeing something similar in my production crash reports from time to time.

Judging from telemetry, it appears to be happening at the time of calling SplashScreen.hide() within the react native part of the app. This likely leaves the user stuck on the splash screen until they force close the app.

So far it has exhibited itself on two devices:

• WP2 - Android 8.0.0
• P9 - Android 7.0

Environment:
  OS: macOS 10.14.1
  Node: 10.9.0
  Yarn: 1.9.4
  npm: 6.4.1
  Watchman: 4.9.0
  Xcode: Xcode 10.1 Build version 10B61
  Android Studio: 3.2 AI-181.5540.7.32.5056338

Packages: (wanted => installed)
  react: 16.0.0 => 16.0.0
