Hey!

Do you still encounter the problem? I can see that you are using very old versions of react-native-reanimated and react-native-vision-camera. Have you tried upgrading libraries and seeing if it works?

If you cannot upgrade libraries or you still face the issue after the upgrade, please provide a code snippet which I can use to reproduce the issue.

Hey @manawaraquevix!

It looks like this is an issue with reanimated layout animations. Can you please share code that is causing this issue or, if you are not sure which part is a culprit, can you share some examples showing how you use layout animations from reanimated?
