uploading images to firebase via blob fails

Expo SDK
2

When you say “I can’t get it to upload it to firebase” what exactly does that mean? Does the app crash, do you get an XHR error, etc.?

I have also tried this

await new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    const xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
    xhr.onload = function() {
      resolve(xhr.response);
    };
    xhr.onerror = function(e) {
      console.log(e);
      reject(new TypeError('Network request failed'));
    };
    xhr.responseType = 'blob';
    xhr.open('GET', uri, true);
    xhr.send(null);
  });

as well as

let picture = await fetch(imagePath);
picture = await picture.blob();

It generally works the first time but then on subsequent calls I get this

Unable to resolve data for blob: 6a275923-2372-4525-b46d-a4f8cf13886b

Is that similar to what you’re experiencing? Btw. I’m on iOS.
