Yeah, it’s caused by React Native- https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/31572#issuecomment-981523534

It will be fixed in RN 68, but until then you can add this workaround we have in our example app: https://github.com/stripe/stripe-react-native/blob/master/example/android/app/build.gradle#L203-L207

For anyone who still needs this, the above comment from @charliecruzan-stripe refers to the example build.gradle file, which has since changed, so the line numbers no longer match up.

The workaround can be found here: https://github.com/stripe/stripe-react-native/blob/b688e87aa4391708fc8683ab4b00c4d36f810117/example/android/app/build.gradle#L202-L207
