Tab which contains map view causes app to crash

See original GitHub issue

I get this uncaught exception, randomly on my tab view layout. There are 3 tabs, the first and the last one have a list view in it. The middle one is a flexbox layout.

I’m not able to understand what is causing this.

Update: Found a way to recreate it. This is happening if I minimize my app, reopen it and try to switch tabs.

Update 2: This crash is occuring because of nativescript-google-maps-sdk plugin, I have a map view in my 2nd tab

An uncaught Exception occurred on "main" thread.
