Before submitting a new issue

• I tested using the latest version of the library, as the bug might be already fixed.
• I tested using a supported version of react native.
• I checked for possible duplicate issues, with possible answers.

@Shahzaib114 Not a fix, just use checkNotifications / requestNotifications
