I created a Test App to play around with sending emails from a react-native app and I keep getting this “TypeError: Cannot read property ‘mail’ of null, js engine: hermes” Error. My code is very minimal and all I am trying to do is open the devices default mail application with a very basic email. I am using expo as well and I am running the app on my Iphone 13 via expo.

Here is the code:

import { Alert, Text, View, Button } from "react-native";
import Mailer from "react-native-mail";
// npm install react-native-mail --save

function sendEmail() {

  console.log(content)
  Mailer.mail(
    {
      subject: "Test",
      recipients: ["[email protected]"], // replace with your email
      body: ' Account Id: #123123',
      isHTML: true,
    },
    (error, event) => {
      Alert.alert(
        error,
        event,
        [
          { text: 'Ok', onPress: () => console.log('OK: Email Error Response') },
          { text: 'Cancel', onPress: () => console.log('CANCEL: Email Error Response') }
        ],
        { cancelable: true }
      )
    });

}


export default function Index() {

  return (
    <View
      style={{
        flex: 1,
        justifyContent: "center",
        alignItems: "center",
      }}
    >
      <Text>I hope this works</Text>
      <Button
        onPress={sendEmail}
        title="Email Me"
        color="#841584"
      />
    </View>
  );
}

I tried removing all of the contents down to just the subject and that did not work. copliot and chatgpt were no help either.
