To resolve this issue make sure you run the following after installing (should be added to the intallation page):
react-native link react-native-get-random-values
or if you are using an ejected expo app:
npx react-native link react-native-get-random-values

@eliottguillaumin if this is necessary, it should be added to the readme at https://github.com/LinusU/react-native-get-random-values#readme

Would you mind opening an issue over there?
