Solution:
-
Install patch-package into your project, as per the instructions.
-
Install deprecated-react-native-prop-types by running
npm install deprecated-react-native-prop-typesoryarn add deprecated-react-native-prop-types. -
The invariant seems to be enforced in
node_modules/react-native/index.js, starting at line 436:

So, change these lines to return the corresponding Prop Types from deprecated-react-native-prop-types instead:

-
Save and run
npx patch-package react-nativeto save the patch. -
Rebuild and the app should launch.
Only thing to keep in mind is that this patch will need to be reapplied with every upgrade to react-native, or until the libraries in question are updated to import from deprecated-react-native-prop-types instead.
