I am using `React Native` (not expo). I don't even have `reanimated` downloaded. I had it downloaded then I removed it and rebuilt the app, and it's giving me this error now.

Things I've tried:

Answer: 
Using **Expo** in a bareworkflow

* Clear app memory
* run `expo start --dev-client --clear`
What I did was degrading react-native-reanimated to **^2.6.0**. It solved the issue for me.
