This is a bug of React-Native for component Activity Indicator. I am not sure that fb has already solved it but you can try this

 constructor(props) {
        super(props);
        this.state = {
            opacity: 0
        };
    }

to show it use this.setState({opacity:1}) and to hide again this.setState({opacity:0}) in your called functions

and in the render where you are using activity indicator
