How to fix Incompatible version for pod "React native Intercom"

Question

I experience some problem on my react native project setting up the Intercom Messenger. I already set up those instructions given on the documentation of intercom. However I got 2 error given to me when I used the Pod Install.

[!] CocoaPods could not find compatible versions for pod "Intercom":
In Podfile: intercom-react-native (from ../node_modules/@intercom/intercom-react-native) was resolved to 3.0.0, which depends on Intercom (~> 12.0.0)

react-native-intercom (from `../node_modules/react-native-intercom`) was resolved to 21.1.1, which

depends on Intercom (~> 10)

Here is the code inside PodFile

require_relative '../node_modules/react-native/scripts/react_native_pods'
require_relative '../node_modules/@react-native-community/cli-platform-ios/native_modules'

platform :ios, '13.0'

target 'Mobapp' do
  config = use_native_modules!

  use_react_native!(
    :path => config[:reactNativePath],
    # to enable hermes on iOS, change `false` to `true` and then install pods
    :hermes_enabled => false
  )

  pod 'react-native-intercom', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-intercom'

  target 'MobappTests' do
    inherit! :complete
    # Pods for testing
  end

  # Enables Flipper.
  #
  # Note that if you have use_frameworks! enabled, Flipper will not work and
  # you should disable the next line.
  use_flipper!()

  # post_install do |installer|
  #   react_native_post_install(installer)
  #   __apply_Xcode_12_5_M1_post_install_workaround(installer)
  # end
end

Intercom Version:

"react-native-intercom": "^21.1.1",
"@intercom/intercom-react-native": "^3.0.0",

You are trying to manual install the react-native-intercom, regarding the intercom integration documentation no worry to use Automatic linking with cd ios & pod install or npx pod-install, this library will be linked automatically as well.

so please remove this line pod 'react-native-intercom', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-intercom' from your Podfile, and try again. It will work as well.

Confirmed with:

Intercom RN: "@intercom/intercom-react-native": "^3.0.5"
ReactNative: `0.66.2`
iOS: `15.5`

Hope this will help you.
