[Bug]: Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[RNDatePicker setDatePickerMode:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x120e5bc00'

[snkr006]

Describe the bug

The app crashes on ios when I attempt to render a DatePicker. It was working fine for older versions of react native, but when I upgraded (0.74.2 to 0.78.0) to the newer version, it is crashing the app.

Expected behavior

It should render properly on all platforms.

To Reproduce

import React, { useState } from 'react'
import DatePicker from 'react-native-date-picker'

export default () => {
  const [date, setDate] = useState(new Date())

  return <DatePicker date={date} onDateChange={setDate} />
}

Operating System

• Android
• iOS

React Native Version

0.78.0

Expo Version (if applicable)

No response

react-native-date-picker version

5.0.12

React Native Architecture

• Old Architecture (Paper)
• New Architecture (Fabric)

Relevant log output

Have you rebuilt?

[snkr006]

I have rebuilt it again and also cleared all the caches as well.
I have integrated native app with react native app, It was crashing for this one. But when I tried to run this in standalone react native app, it is working fine

Please check the attached screenshot of the issue

I believe I've got the same issue. After updating to Expo 53 (RN 0.79.2), the app crashes when the date picker is being rendered.
It works fine on Android, only crashes on iOS.

I'm getting this error during compilation after upgrade to Expo 52 (RN 0.79.2). Maybe it'll be useful for you.

@henninghall, Interestingly I just found out that the issue only occurs on debug mode, not with a release build.

I cleared my node modules, native folders and expo bundler cache, but none helped getting the time picker (in my case) to work again in debug mode (running Expo 53 on new arch, latest version of datepicker lib). It is broken on both my iOS simulator and physical iPhone.

When I made an EAS TestFlight build while in this state where the time picker crashes in debug mode, the TestFlight (release) build showed a fully working time picker.

I hope this information is helpful in tracking down the cause of the issue.
If I can be of further help, please let me know.
