Have you made sure that it wasn't a React Native bug?

Is the bug specific to iOS or Android? Or can it be reproduced on both platforms?

It is specific to android, however it is not easily reproducible but we have instances of this crash on our firebase for our users.

Is the bug reproductible in a production environment (not a debug one)?

Not reproducible but occuring for large userbase.

Environment

Android (12.0)

Expected Behavior

Should run fine with given default configurations

Actual Behavior

Currently their is no provision to enable/disable useNativeDriver for react native snap carousal. For carousal animations useNativeDriver is set to true i.e they run on UI thread by default. We encountered some crashes related to Animated node that occurred only on Android 12 devices and after digging into it we get to know it is related to useNativeDriver set to true for carousal animations. Also their is an open issue in react-native related to this crash: Link. So we added a patch in react-native-snap-carousal library for disabling useNativeDriver for devices having Android 12 and that reduces the crash rate for that crash with very few instances now. We have been using this for almost a year and haven't faced any issue with our app exposed to more than 20 million users. So we though of adding support for enable/disable useNativeDriver for react-native-snap-carousal as a exposed prop.

Reproducible Demo

Not reproducible but occuring for large userbase having instances on firebase.

Steps to Reproduce

Their is no defined steps to reproduce this issue but we instances of this crash in our firebase for large numbers of users and it was reduced by setting useNativeDriver to false. Here is the stacktrace for it.
