RTL Android phones force RTL layout, even though disabled
See original GitHub issueHey there.
This is a really annoying issue with Android phones. Some of my app users have Hebrew based Android phones, and for some unjust reason Android forces the RTL layout, altough my app doesn’t support it.
Iv’e added this in App.js main
I18nManager.forceRTL(false); I18nManager.allowRTL(false);
But it does not work.
I am not sure though if it is an expo or RN issue.

@kadoshms can you open an issue on the React Native repo if this is an issue there? Going to close this for now if it’s not an issue inside Expo code.
Iv’e noticed that in our case, the app “fixes” itself on the second fresh launch (when the app is killed and then opened).
