React Native Crash - Error: Exception in HostFunction: Loss of precision during arithmetic conversion: (long) 13.63636334080342

Hello there,

I’m facing the following error while resetting the navigation to Home after a successful login. The app crashes as soon as the navigation resets. I’m able to reproduce the crash on a physical Samsung Galaxy S22, M52, and A11. The iOS devices are working fine.

Version I'm using:

"@react-navigation/bottom-tabs": "^6.0.9",
"@react-navigation/native": "^6.0.2",
"@react-navigation/native-stack": "^6.0.4",
"react-native": "0.76.3",
"react-native-screens": "^4.3.0",

Solutions I Tried:

-> I’ve seen other solutions where people suggest using Math.floor for numerical conversion and avoiding setting font sizes in points. However, in my case, I’m not using any of these conversions.

-> Another thing I tried was migrating to Navigation 7 with RN 0.77.0, but it didn’t help resolve the issue.

-> I also tried upgrading react-native-screens to 4.9.1, but no luck.

-> I’m not using any progress bars or reanimated carousels.

Any help would be appreciated. Here’s the full error:

After extensive research and many new builds, I found that the problem seems to be related to Fabric. I turned off the new architecture in gradle.properties, and it started working. It looks like some Samsung devices are having conflicts with Fabric.

I’ll do more research and update here on why the new architecture is causing issues with navigation.

For now, the solution that worked for me was to turn off the new architecture in the gradle.properties file for Android.

/android/gradle.properties

newArchEnabled=false
