How to handle reanimated crash on SDK 44 on Android 5

  1. SDK Version: 44
  2. Platforms(Android/iOS/web/all): Android 5

App built on sdk 44 with react-native-reanimated crashes on Android 5. What is the best way to handle this (instead of letting it crash on the poor user)?

A. Is it possible to specify min version of the os so that the play store would not allow installation on 5.x? I looked at app.json/app.config.js properties but did not find any that would do the trick.

B. Is it possible to gracefully exit the app after displaying a proper message to the user. I experimented and found that the crash occurs before the code in App.js. So no way to inform the user.

Thanks,
Hemant
