React Native setState Issue and Warning #18

Description

First:

Is a prompt unmounted when "visible" parameter is set to false?

if for sure NO

Ignore this issue and close it

If so or maybe

when you setState for the "visible" parameter ("promptVisible") it will cause a:
Warning: Can only update a mounted or mounting component
This setState Warning will happen after opened "promptVisible" to true and you have closed "promptVisible" to false

Example Code:

<Prompt
     title="Enter Amount"
     placeholder=""
     /*defaultValue={this.state.amount}*/
     visible={ this.state.promptVisible } //this is where the warning will happen
     onCancel={ () => this.closePrompt() } //this method contains, console.warn() and this.setState
     onSubmit={
            (value) => this.submitAmount(value) //this method contains, console.warn and this.setState
     } />

Note: submitAmount method setState for state.amount and state.promptVisible

It will check this.state.promptVisible

or check for a change in value

when the prompt is unmounted!

causing the warning.

After major testing and checking all of my other components for setState and state for unmounted and mounted component I drew the conclusion to this react-native-prompts as it's the only component not displayed when "visible" is false.
