I have implemented the use of real time connection in my school project that is built with React Native and Expo. I have followed the documentation from the site that shows on how to unsubscribe. From what I have gathered from other sources and videos explaining its use when doing so in React calling it in a cleanup function should and does prevent more connections from being made to the same event. The problem that I am having is not being able to disconnect the real time connection when the unmount occurs when the current screen is not in focus. Is there something else that I am missing that I need to do? The docs seem like it should disconnect from it, maybe it should and react/react native does something differently that I do not know.
TL;DR
Developers are having trouble disconnecting from a real-time connection in a React Native and Expo project. They followed the documentation and tried calling the unsubscribe function in a cleanup function, but it doesn't seem to work when the screen is not in focus. They're wondering if they're missing something or if React/React Native works differently. A solution or explanation for this issue is not provided.
