Expo ImagePicker crashed on IOS Gallery not opening

When I try to use expo imagepicker, the application freezes, opens the gallery or the camera and they close immediately, this only happens to me on iOS, on Android it works perfectly.

This is my code

  getPermissionAsync = async () => {
    if (Constants.platform.ios) {
      const { status } = await Permissions.askAsync(Permissions.CAMERA, Permissions.CAMERA_ROLL);
      if (status !== "granted") {
        alert(
          "Lo sentimos, necesitamos permisos de cámara para hacer que esto funcione!"
        );
      }
    }
  };

  _pickImage = async type => {
    let result = null;
    if (type == "galeria") {
      result = await ImagePicker.launchImageLibraryAsync({
        mediaTypes: ImagePicker.MediaTypeOptions.Images,
        quality: 0.5,
        base64: true
      });
    } else {
      result = await ImagePicker.launchCameraAsync({
        mediaTypes: ImagePicker.MediaTypeOptions.Images,
        quality: 0.5,
        base64: true
      });
    }

    if (result != null && !result.cancelled) {
      let arr = this.state.imagenesAdjuntas;
      arr.push(result);
      this.setState({ imagenesAdjuntas: arr });
    }
  };

These are the dependencies

"dependencies": {
    "@expo/vector-icons": "^10.0.3",
    "expo": "^33.0.0",

try adding this to your object, like so,

ImagePicker.launchImageLibraryAsync({
     mediaTypes: ImagePicker.MediaTypeOptions.Images,
     quality: 0.5,
     base64: true
     presentationStyle: 0 //add this
});

with this everything should be perfectly working on IOS
