Steps to reproduce

• Click on Button (A modal should pop up)
• Click on Button (Nothing will happen and you will get an error

What is expected?

You should see a new popup open.

What is actually happening?

You get the error:

ViewHierarchy: parent is already presenting view controller close the current modal page before showing another one!

Closing modal 1 and openning modal 2 / using navigation are not viable workarounds for this issue if what you intend for the user is to see modal 1 when they close modal 2 and

• you are have multiple navigations in both modal 1 and modal 2
• you use a custom modal component that has a close button etc and handles closure in certain ways.
• some of your modals return dynamic values upon their closure
• you have hooks to run on modal's closure for both modal 1 and modal 2
• you report closure of modal 1 to server for usage analysis.
• many other things that other people might do but I'm not doing in my app.
