Flatlist freezes after closing the modal window (iOS)

[R0LLeX]

Description

Sometimes, after closing the modal window, all the content that is inside the flatlist freezes, while everything that is outside the flatlist is completely clickable and workable. Only restarting the application helps. This problem appeared after updating RN from 0.70.5 to 0.71.1
react-native-reanimated from 2.14.1 to 2.14.4 (with version 3.0.0-rc.10 also freezes)

Happens to me too. if anyone knows anything it would be helpfull!

i suspect that it occurs either when a modal is shown and then dismissed, or when opening another app from within my app, like for example, when you press a link and safari opens up and then I return back to my app, some flatlist items are unresponsive.

Also, this happens only on iPads, more specifically, on 2 that tested so far: pro 3rd gen 2018 and pro 6th gen 2022

To elaborate, in my app, the screen that has this issue is a bit complex. Imagine a split screen like layout, with a vertical list on the left side of the screen and a horizontal list on the right side like a pager view. the whole thing is like the gmail app that you browse through emails so the left vertical list is the message list and the left part of the screen are the webviews to inspect the message body, header etc.

The freeze happens on either flatlists (left vertical, right horizontal).

This screen is not on the same on phones as there is less screen space so, I only load the vertical list in one screen and opens a new screen with the horizontal list to inspect the message and swipe to prev/next.
