## What is happening While working on #3800 I've noticed frequent crashes on `iOS`. I'll explain this using the demo from the test code, basically two screens, second screen has a `RectButton`. 1. Navigate to second screen 2. Go back 3. Navigate to the second screen again 4. App crashes Sometime it crashes immediately on startup. ## Why is it happening? `Native` handlers are handled differently compared to others. The main problem was that we tried to attach handler that was previously dropped, but `NativeDetector` has no information that this happened. The flow here looks as follows: 1. We navigate to screen with button 2. `addSubview` is called - at this point it won't attach anything as `_nativeHandlers` is empty 3. `updateProps` is called - handlers are attached 4. We navigate back to first screen 5. Handler is dropped 6. We navigate again to second screen 7. `addSubview` is called - it tries to attach handler that was dropped, therefore app crashes ## Solution To fix this issue, we clear `_nativeHandlers` in `prepareForRecycle` method. ## Test plan <details> <summary>I've tested it on my branch with components re-written to new API, using the following code in EmptyExample:</summary> ```tsx import React from 'react'; import { StyleSheet, View } from 'react-native'; import { RectButton } from 'react-native-gesture-handler'; export default function EmptyExample() { return ( <View style={styles.container}> <RectButton style={styles.button} onPress={() => console.log('Hello World!')} /> </View> ); } const styles = StyleSheet.create({ container: { flex: 1, justifyContent: 'center', alignItems: 'center', }, button: { width: 100, height: 30, borderRadius: 10, backgroundColor: 'pink', }, }); ``` </details>
