Swipe Gesture not working in React Navigation v6 in IOS build

Question

I am using Expo SDK 43 and React Navigation v6 for my react native app. I have used React Drawer Navigation in my app navigation. In the development mode inside expo, drawer open and close functions are working perfectly along with Swipe right gesture. When I swipe right at the edge of the app view the Drawer Panel opens perfectly. But when I am building the app using EAS build to submit it to the app store, in the built version the Swipe Gesture is not working at all. The open/close function on a button click is working fine but Swipe gesture is not responding.

const StudentNavigator = () => {
  return (
    <DashboardDrawer.Navigator
      screenOptions={{
        headerShown: false,
        gestureEnabled: true,
        swipeEnabled: true,
        drawerType: "slide",
        swipeEdgeWidth: 100,
        swipeMinDistance: 100,
      }}
      drawerContent={(props) => <CustomDrawer {...props} />}
    >

I increased the swipeEdgeWidth and swipeMinDistance values to see if that has any effect but nothing makes it working in IOS build. In Android build everything is working fine. What am I missing here? Is it a bug in expo SDK or anything else?

Here is my package.json configuration:

Try detachPreviousScreen: false in options of Stack Screen with gestureEnabled: true for ios if screen freezes on back swipe.
