Steps to Reproduce

upgrade v2 brownfield integration with v3

[krizzu]

hey, can you tell me how did you access the v2 previously?

[jaikantshikray]

i was using brownfield integration that was part of v2 it was based on bridge with js thread controlled from app delegate and it was working now as i have upgraded to 0.81 now i dont have access to bridge and i have decided to upgrade the react native async storage as well and here i get no access to saved data that i was accessing with v2

i think data is saved in manifest instead of db and v3 tries to access db on native ios side ?

[krizzu]

The delegate has been replaced with direct Brownfield integration (documentation here).
