Hi, were you able to fix this error? I am also experiencing issues too.

You need to install react-native-reanimated properly by following the guide, I guess you miss these steps

Step 2: Add Reanimated's babel plugin Add react-native-reanimated/plugin plugin to your babel.config.js.

  module.exports = {
    presets: [
      ... // don't add it here :)
    ],
    plugins: [
      ...
      'react-native-reanimated/plugin',
    ],
  };

Step 3: Clear cache (recommended) yarn start --reset-cache
