React-native: Fatal Exception: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError

[oney]

My Android app is using React Native 0.22.0, developed on Mac. Everything is fine on development. After releasing today, I got crash reports from Crashlytics.

Report is

Fatal Exception: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Failed to allocate a 23103292 byte allocation with 13011316 free bytes and 12MB until OOM

About 50% users face this issue. Really need to be fixed.

The device is running out of memory, in the first case it is trying to allocate 22mb for a bitmap where there is only 12mb available. Do you know how much memory your app was allocating until that crash ? because it may be a memory leaking issue

I haven't noticed anything alarming in the apps I have deployed on Android to the Play Store recently. Could you provide more background here? I believe this is a subject to proper profiling so that we can get an idea what's going on here.

android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml

<application
  android:largeHeap="true"

Adding largeHeap seems fix it
