    1. Hi Jay,

      The post has been updated. Follow the post again and rebuild your project. It will work now.

      To swipe place your first finger and index finger on the mouse pad and then make a sweep to either left or right. The image will swipe.

  1. Don’t forget to add this line to your Carousel component. I missed it too

    onSnapToItem={(index) => setIndex(index)}

    I hope it helps.

  2. Getting below error when I followed this

    TypeError: Cannot read property ‘style’ of undefined

    1. It has been fixed. Install “react-native-snap-carousel”: “^4.0.0-beta.6”. Version 3.6 is causing the issue.

  3. Swiping works but clicking the individual dots for pagination dont work. the first dot stays highlighted when clicking the second or third one.
