Showing modal in iOS displays modal once

[armespavong]

I've been trying to show modal in iOS based on the document https://react-nativescript.netlify.app/docs/core-concepts/modals. Everything works fine in android but in iOS, the modal displays only once. After I closed the modal call the function handleOpenModal to show it again, the modal doesn't display.

Here are my dependencies
"@nativescript/core": "^8.6.0"
"react-nativescript": "^5.0.0"
"@nativescript/android": "^8.6.2"
"@nativescript/ios": "8.6.1"

I’m afraid I’m not actively maintaining RNS anymore so won’t be able to dig into what the cause for the issue might be, but I would recommend as an alternative trying the React Navigation (version 5) approach to opening a modal rather than the portal-based approach (it’s documented because it used to be the only way to open portals before I implemented a proper navigation library, but ideally the docs should recommend React Navigation instead):
