react-native-blur flat out doesn't work on iOS devices
Over the past several weeks, I've been trying to get this module to work on my iPhone 6. The effect is just a gray box no matter where I embed BlurView. (I'm using it to blur Text, View, etc. not images.)
I've tried downgrading and upgrading between 3.0.0 to 3.1.2, neither of the two have worked. Removing the build from Xcode and rebuilding did not work either; unlinking and relinking, recompiling over and over again, uninstalling React, running the app in release mode -- all of which resulted in me staring at a gray box.
Blur works on the iOS simulator in certain cases, but there's really no point in that if it doesn't show the actual device. I'd provide pictures, but I think you can imagine a gray box.
I'm out of tricks at this point.
iOS 10.3.2 React-Native: 0.46.0 (also tried 0.45.0) react-native-blur: 3.1.2 (and 3.0.0) Xcode 8.3.3
Same for: iOS 11 React-Native: 0.47.2 react-native-blur: 3.1.3 Xcode 9
same for: iOS 11 React-Native: 0.54.0 react-native-blur: 3.2.2 Xcode 9
any update on this one?

Simulator is 100%. Gray background on actual device.
Can we get some traction on this? Changing immediate parent background does not fix the issue.
any updates on this?
