Steps To Reproduce

It comes from Sentry reports, but I think it occurs when closing the application.

[HayesGordon]

@Anullos have you been able to reproduce this locally? Or only the report from Sentry, how frequently is this error occurring?

[HayesGordon]

Looks like a similar report was made in the Flutter repository: flutter/flutter#174859

In that report, Rive isn’t listed as a used package, which suggests that this problem might be somewhere else.

[Anullos]

@HayesGordon I have been able to reproduce it and it happens when you exit the app with the back button on the device.

[Anullos]

Hi, in rive_native-0.0.10+1 contitnue the error.

[thize]

This error started appearing for me after migrating my animations to rive: ^0.14.0-dev.8 (using rive renderer) or using the rive_native plugin directly.

[thize]

Hi, could you please take another look at this issue?

I’ve confirmed that this crash is definitely coming from rive_native, not from Flutter or any other package.
The only change between builds was switching from the rive package to rive_native, and the crash appears immediately when using rive_native.

I’m currently unable to use rive_native on Android because of this crash

1. The crash only happens when using rive_native (not with the rive package).
2. The same animations work fine with rive, but they use new features only available in rive_native, so I can’t revert to the rive package as a workaround.

This makes it impossible to use Rive animations that depend on the new renderer on Android devices.
Would it be possible for someone from the team to investigate or provide a temporary workaround?

[Anullos]

It occurs on Android devices, when they close the application

@thize do you have a sample project that you can share with steps to reproduce the crash?

[HayesGordon]

Note that we did just address a large graphic memory issue for Flutter Android. If you were only seeing the above crash after some time, then it might be related.

Could you try the latest version and let us know.

[thize]

Yes, the bug has been fixed in the new version. 👌

[HayesGordon]

@Anullos are you able to confirm if the issue is also resolved for you?

[Anullos]

It seems that with version rive_native-0.0.14 it has been solved, I will be able to confirm it 100% when I upload it to production and I don't receive errors from Sentry.

Thank you so much.
