react-native-swiper: Until the first swipe the first slide doesn't show up

I have build a simple swiper in android where 5 slides are supposed to be shown. On load I can see 5 dots below with the first dot being active but the content is not shown for the same.

Here is my code:

<ScrollView>
        <Swiper
          height={deviceHeight - 200}
          paginationStyle={{ bottom: 20 }}
          activeDot={<View style={mainStyles.sliderBullets} />}
          loop={false}
        >
          <SliderContent
             // some content
          />
          <SliderContent
             // some content
          />
          <SliderContent
            // some content
          />
          <SliderContent
            // some content
          />
          <SliderContent
            // some content
          />
        </Swiper>
      </ScrollView>

If I swipe to second slide and come back to first one it shows the first slide.

Can anyone tell that why is the first slide empty until first swipe?

Additional Info:

RN: 0.42.3 Android: 7.1.2 Nexus 5X React native swiper: 1.5.4

Disabling removeClippedSubviews from the Swiper component fixed this issue for me.

              <Swiper
                height={190}
                showsButtons={true}
                removeClippedSubviews={false}>
