RNCamera crashes in iOS

Question

I'm developing a video recording app in React Native and I'm using 'react-native-camera' package. Of course, I used RNCamera and the thing is it's fine in android but crashes in iOS. When I open the screen where RNCamera is used, the app just crashes and turn off. I can't get information why this issue occurs. If anyone has experience with this problem, I beg your help. Thank you.

"react": "16.9.0",
"react-native": "0.61.5",
"react-native-camera": "3.15.0"

<RNCamera
    ref={ref => {
        this.camera = ref;
    }}
    style={{ flex: 1 }}
    type={RNCamera.Constants.Type.front}
/>

On iOS simulator camera is not supported. Is this happening on simulator or real device? — Hamed Navabian, Feb 28 '20 at 03:25
So try to run your app with Xcode, and read the error on Xcode console. Search it or update your question with thrown error for more help. — Hamed Navabian, Feb 28 '20 at 04:16

key to me was to follow that part of the instructions: You may also need to reset your simulator data after adding those permissions Device -> Erase All Content and Settings... It then stopped crashing the simulator on iOS
