Unable to call web3.eth.accounts.create() without remote debugger on react native app

I am building an android wallet using react-native and trying to create an account using web3.eth.accounts.create() . This works with react-native remote debugger enabled. However, when I work the same code with the debugger off, it stops working.

this is my package.json

"cryptico": "^1.0.2",
"native-base": "2.8.0",
"node-libs-browser": "2.1.0",
"react": "16.3.1",
"react-native": "0.55.4",
"react-native-firebase": "^5.2.0",
"react-native-gesture-handler": "^1.0.12",
"react-native-scripts": "1.14.0",
"react-navigation": "^3.0.9",
"socket.io-client": "2.0.4",
"web3": "1.0.0-beta.34"

Solution

I fixed it by using ethers.js to create new ethereum wallet.

// this is specifically for react-native
import 'ethers/dist/shims';
import {ethers} from 'ethers';
// to create a ethereum wallet
let randomWallet = ethers.Wallet.createRandom();

Web3.js is really troublesome for react-native
