   What are react native timer alternatives?

   I am still using this in react-native to force GPS geolocation updates.

     componentDidMount() {
       try {
         // Use timer to force GPS update
         // watchPosition updates too slowly, maybe every 10 seconds
         this.setInterval(() => {
           try {
             if (this.state.killTimerMixin) { return; }
             this.geoWatchStop();
             this.geoWatchStart();
           } catch (error) {
             // Exception is thrown when  database item this view was displaying is deleted in another view.
             // ToDo: How to stop and shut down the TimerMixin ?
             this.clearTimeout();  // < clearTimeout does NOT stop it
           }
         }, 3000);
