Hey! 👋

The issue doesn't seem to contain a minimal reproduction.

Could you provide a snack or a link to a GitHub repository under your username that reproduces the problem?

Hi! This issue also happened to me on Android after upgrading "react-native-gesture-handler" from v2.9.0 to v2.11.0.

+1, on iOS.
"react": "17.0.1", "react-native": "0.64.4", "react-native-gesture-handler": "^2.5.0",

Somehow after opening the debugger the error isn't shown. As soon as the debugger is stopped this error is shown.

Update: after publishing it on TestFlight, it does not work. A white screen is displayed only.

I commented the queueMicrotask functions at these places the error went away. Don't know how it will impact the functionality or performance.

node_modules/react-native-gesture-handler/src/handlers/gestureHandlerCommon.ts

Which JavaScript runtime are you using? - JSC would be the default on those RN versions so unless you've enabled Hermes or installed react-native-v8, it will be that.

I have this exact same problem on iOS. I have xcode 14.3.1, react-native 0.63.5, react-native-gesture-handler 2.9.0.
The solution from @abdulrafeh857 worked for me but is not a real solution, it's barely a patch and I hope that it does not have any major impact on the app.
