NPM install crash on idnow 0.1.7

Hello,
I've been trying the react-native-idnow library with one of my clients, but I suddenly get an error when running npm install. When running yarn install, everything works and no error is shown.
Struggled to find a solution by also downgrading the ID now version but with no help.
We are using

    "react": "17.0.1",
    "react-native": "0.64.2",
    "react-native-idnow": "^0.1.7",

Do you have any idea? From the error it says that the dependency version of react-native from react-native-idnow cannot be resolved:

And on the logs we have:

App crashes when flipper is enabled

Reproducing steps:

• Enable flipper on iOS project
  use_flipper!()
• Run flipper desktop on your laptop.
• Build run the iOS app.
  ==> iOS app crashes

Any idea how to resolve this issue ?

Unable to build with the new XCode 15

ld: building for 'iOS-simulator', but linking in object file (/ios/Pods/IDnowSDK/libidnow-sdk-universal.a[x86_64][285](bands.o)) built for 'iOS'
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

After updating to the new XCode version I wasn't able to run my app because IDNow is failing.

App crashes if any other package call for camera access

When our 'react-native-share' package calls for Camera access, our app is crashing. When I checked the errors, I found out

IdNow activity listener is throwing an error because can not handle properly other activity results.

fixe is #23

Android : Error: environment when calling startVideoIdent

Hello @NazarYablonskiy,
Thanks for your great work on this project. It works perfectly for me on iOS. However I can't get it to work on Android. When I call

try {
   await IDnowManager.startVideoIdent({
      transactionToken: kycID
   });
} catch (e) {
   logger.log("IDnow exception: ", e)
}

I get a runtime error:

IDnow exception:  Error: environment

    at NativeModules.js:104
    at MessageQueue.__invokeCallback (MessageQueue.js:414)

I'm using react-native-idnow version 0.0.4

any help will be greatly appreciated
