Sentry.init not initiating when offline - causes a crash

Question

I recently moved from expo-go to expo-dev-client and since then, the app crashes on start up if there is slow or no internet.

I have this in my app.js:

try {
  Sentry.init({
    dsn: 'https://XXX@XXX.ingest.sentry.io/XXX',
  });
}
catch (e) {
  console.log('Sentry error: ', e)
}

Expo SDK 46

Environment:

  expo-env-info 1.0.5 environment info:

If I remove the Sentry.init, it stops the crashing.
