[🐛] Bug Report Title - auth()?.currentUser.getIdToken(true) returns null to different users (80% on iOS)

[hamza4213]

Issue

I am using @react-native-firebase/auth:18.9.0 and my react-native version is 0.70.0 and in our application, we are managing sessions through JWT tokens but the issue is some times the method to retrieve the token on app launch returns null even the user was recently signed in. This is happening to multiple users and they are getting signed out without even doing anything. The exact method I am using is as below import auth from "@react-native-firebase/auth"; const token = await auth().currentUser?.getIdToken(true); So the issue is the currentUser is not present in the auth that's why we are not getting the refresh token.
