Answer 1

Facing the same issue.. Seems like, we'd have to hide the warning for the time being. Here's the shortest way to do it:

componentDidMount() { console.disableYellowBox = true; ... }

Answer 2

To fix this issue...

1. Navigate to your node_modules/react-native/Libraries/Core/Timers/JSTimers.js file.

2. Look for the variable MAX_TIMER_DURATION_MS

3. Change its value to 10000 * 1000

4. Save the changes (with auto format turned off) and re-build your app.
