react-native-maps <Marker /> not showing up

Question

Markers (whether custom or default) aren't showing on my map. I tried using custom markers using Image and view components too.. still no success. Please help...ask me for more details if you want..

My RN version = 0.80.1 react-native-maps = 1.21.0 newArchEnabled false

my code is as under

import MapView {Marker, PROVIDER_GOOGLE} from 'react-native-maps';

//other part of the code

return(
<View style={{ flex: 1, backgroundColor: '#0000' }}>
      <MapView
        ref={mapRef}
        style={StyleSheet.absoluteFillObject}
        provider={PROVIDER_GOOGLE}
        initialRegion={{
          latitude: 20.5937,
          longitude: 78.9629,
          latitudeDelta: 40,
          longitudeDelta: 40,
        }}
        onMapReady={() => {
          console.log('---MAP_READY---', agentLoc);
          if (agentLoc?.latitude && agentLoc?.longitude) {
            setTimeout(() => animateTo(agentLoc, 'READY_TO_AGENT'), 200);
          }
        }}
        onLayout={() => {
          console.log('---MAP_LAYOUT---', agentLoc);
          if (agentLoc?.latitude && agentLoc?.longitude) {
            setTimeout(() => animateTo(agentLoc, 'LAYOUT_TO_AGENT'), 200);
          }
        }}
      >
        {agentLoc && (
          <Marker
           identifier="agent"
           coordinate={{ latitude: Number(agentLoc.latitude), longitude:Number(agentLoc.longitude) }}
          title="Agent"
          pinColor="tomato"
          />
         )} 
      </MapView>
  </View>
)

Have you tried to go back to 1.20.1 at least or older to get oldArch support? — P-A

I wasn't sure it was going to work, so I preferred to put a comment. Glad it worked out for you. — P-A

You need to use an older version of react-native-maps that support eh old architecture.

The version 1.20.1 or lower will make the markers appear again.
