You should open another issue to report it : )
I cannot reproduce it with the lack of information : (

[ithustle]

Refactoring some piece of code, in case, from componentWillReceiveProps to use getDerivedStateFromProps and componentWillUpdate to componentDidUpdate instead

@ithustle I plan to do it this weekend : )

react-native-swiper 1.6 working fine on android but not on ios. On ios previous button is not working and also index number is causing problems. I don't know what's the problem with this package because 1.5 version works fine on ios but not on android and now latest version works fine on android but not on ios.

[saadsaleem187]

i don't know how you guys managing this package. Without testing why you uploaded new versions. So many issues with this package. 1.5 works on ios not on android and now latest version works fine on android without any issues but not on ios. This package is not stable.

swipe is not working with latest react-native version 0.61.1

[ArrayZoneYour]

@saadsaleem187 Sorry for the bad experience, but I think you should open a separate issue and only the link referenced here to help other contributors to solve it.

React Native 0.61.2 Android builds (not tested iOS) swiper refuses to swipe. This includes using the scrollBy() func. Interestingly the showsPagination dots do update but the content remains frozen. Has made the package completely unusable :(

I'll be digging in shortly to see if I can identify the issue

Edit: What was the rationale behind removing ViewPagerAndroid and not simply sourcing it from its new home import ViewPager from '@react-native-community/viewpager'?

@juanjsebgarcia You'd better open an issue to provide more information.

There is a version, that contains updated ViewPager: https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-native-swiper/v/1.6.0-dev.1

Why remove when https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-viewpager provides exactly the use case for paging through views, and offers best native performance?

[jantongiovanni]

This is still broken on Android. I am using it as a fullpage swipe and all nested ScrollViews do not work inside of the Swiper, but behave fine on iOS

[Aryojaam]

I am experiencing a huge performance loss upgrading from 1.5.14 to 1.6.0-rc.3. By swiping the page, the index gets updated almost a second later. I am using redux as a state holder

[fungilation]

Removing @react-native-community/viewpager is honestly a mistake. If 1.6.x stays the course with removal, I for one will be forking 1.5.x to stay with viewpager for 100% native animation performance. Swiper is a key component to my entire app's UI, full screen so I need animation performance to be lag-free.
