Before submitting a new issue

• I tested using the latest version of the library, as the bug might be already fixed.
• I tested using a supported version of react native.
• I checked for possible duplicate issues, with possible answers.

@AkhilPits are you using React native old architecture?

[AkhilPits]

Hi @maitrungduc1410 ,
Thanks for the response.

Yes using the old architecture.

Thanks

[maitrungduc1410]

@AkhilPits it doesn't support old arch, lemme write some more code to provide backward support

[AkhilPits]

Thanks @maitrungduc1410

[maitrungduc1410]
