@niros001 , I suppose that's because the request is cached. Try to add this to request headers

'Cache-Control' : 'no-store'

@niros001: @wkh237 is right for the server side. If you are looking to manage the cache client side with react-native-fetch-blob, you might want to look into this package: https://github.com/wcandillon/react-native-img-cache

I use setState to show a placeholder when there is no Image selected. When there is an image selected and the user replaces the Image I just set the state to placeholder first, then after the writeFile function, i call .then(ret => { [reset state to no-placeholder] })

I could give you a more detailed explanation if needed.
