I haven't added or removed a single thing from it.\n\nUsing `ns preview` and `ns preview --no-hmr --force` and `ns preview --no-hmr` all gave me the same results.\n\nI was resetting the cache, resetting the app, reinstalling the app, but still, that didn't solve it...\n\nBonus note: It worked on my iPhone X, and it worked on my Redmi Note 8, but not on my **Samsung Galaxy S25**...\n\nThis is my whole terminal:\n\n```\n(base) ➜  example-app git:(demo-branch) ✗ ns preview\nnpm warn deprecated lodash.get@4.4.2: This package is deprecated.
