Notes
I think the problem is that, in RNCImageEditor.m, line 20’s if/else is falling back to the else even when RCTImage/RCTImageUitls exists in the project (where RCTImage.xcodeproj is a sibling to RNCImageEditor.xcodeproj)

The fix is included into v2.0.2. Let me know if it works for you!
I’m getting the same error.
@kevincantstop I am pretty sure you’re using v1 of image-editor. Can you try v2.0.1 ? We no longer use image-store under the hood.
