Animated.FlatList doesn't bounce back during refreshing if calling Alert.alert in onRefresh

[PRESIDENT810]

Description

I attempt to add a alert popup box when user refreshes the FlatList, but it seems that Alert.alert will interfere with Animated.FlatList's animation and will cause it doesn't bounce back

Steps to reproduce

Minimal code to reproduce:

import { Animated, StyleSheet, Alert, Dimensions } from 'react-native';

import { View, Text } from 'react-native';

function App() {
  return (
    <Animated.FlatList
        data={["item1", "item2", "item3"]}
        renderItem={({ item }) => <Text style={{fontSize: 20, margin: 10, padding: 10}}>{item}</Text>}
        style={{ position: "relative", borderColor: "black", margin: 10, padding: 10, borderWidth: 1, borderRadius: 10 }}
        refreshing={false}
        onRefresh={() => {
          Alert.alert(
            "Alert",
            "Sure?",
            [
              {text: "cancel", style: "cancel", onPress: () => {}},
              {
                text: "ok",
                onPress: () => {
                  console.log("ok");
                },
              },
            ],
          );
        }}
      />
  );
}

const { width, height } = Dimensions.get('window');


export default function HomeScreen() {
  return (
    <View style={styles.container}>
      <View style={[styles.box, {
        position: 'absolute',
        top: height*0.25,
        left: width*0.25,
      }]}>
        <App />
      </View>
  </View>

  );
}

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    backgroundColor: 'white',
  },
  box: {
    // backgroundColor: 'blue',
    opacity: 0.5,
  },
  titleContainer: {
    flexDirection: 'row',
    alignItems: 'center',
    gap: 8,
  },
  stepContainer: {
    gap: 8,
    marginBottom: 8,
  },
  reactLogo: {
    height: 178,
    width: 290,
    bottom: 0,
    left: 0,
    position: 'absolute',
  },
});

React Native Version

Affected Platforms

Runtime - iOS

Output of npx react-native info

(base) ➜  my-app git:(main) ✗ npx react-native info

⚠️ react-native depends on @react-native-community/cli for cli commands. To fix update your package.json to include:


  "devDependencies": {
    "@react-native-community/cli": "latest",
  }

Stacktrace or Logs

There's no crash so I don't think log will be useful

Hey @PRESIDENT810 , It will be great if you can share the output of npx react-native info. As it will help us to narrow down the issue whether it is related to new arch or old arch.
