I am working on an expo-managed react native app that uses firebase to authenticate users and react-navigation to manage navigation. The app compiles and runs fine in both Expo Go and using EAS Build, however when I upload it to testflight I get an "EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT)" error immediately on launch of the app. Former solutions to this problem were based on permissions, but I don't ask nor need any special permissions from the user, so that doesn't help in my case. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I have been trying to debug this for the past week!
Here are the relevant parts of the testflight crash logs (I have removed the app name with TestApp):
Exception Type: EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT)

Here is what the relevant portions of my App.js looks like:
initializeApp(firebaseConfig);
const Tab = createMaterialBottomTabNavigator();
const Stack = createNativeStackNavigator();
const [user, setUser] = useState(false);
const [loading, setLoading] = useState(true);
const auth = getAuth();
onAuthStateChanged(auth, (user) => {
if (user) {
setUser(true);
} else {
setUser(false);
}
setLoading(false);
});
if(loading){
return(<AppLoading />)
}
return (
<SafeAreaProvider>
<NavigationContainer>
{user ? (
<MainApp />
) : (
<Onboarding />
)}
</NavigationContainer>
</SafeAreaProvider>
);

Again, any push in the right direction would be greatly appreciated, and thank you in advance for any help!
Edit: Here is a list of things that I have tried
- Uninstalling, reinstalling, and validating different versions of Expo and React Native
- Removing all auth hooks from firebase
- Refactoring the auth flow
- Moving the initialize firebase key from outside to inside the app.js export
