MultiImageView | Android library to display a few images in one ImageView | Chat library

I'm a bit stuck. I have a custom UIView which contains a timer and an UIImageView, that timer fires at a constant interval and changes the image from an array of images. This custom view works fine and is performant when I embed it within any other UIView. It changes images at the prescribed speed and doesn't have any issues. It works as I'd like.

This exact same view however, when placed inside a UITableVieCell that looks like the below, renders only the first image and does not change. I have confirmed that the timer is firing, and the the image view is changing its image under the hood by printing the reference to the UIImageView.image. That is to say, that when embedded within a UITableViewCell, my custom UIView is firing its timer and the UIImageView within this custom view, thinks it is changing its image. This leads me to believe that this is a display issue and not a data setting issue.

As a result, here is what have tried:

1. I've tried wrapping it in DispatchQueue.main.async{}
2. Adding a delegate so that my UIViewController can call tableView.reloadData() when the timer is fired
3. Removing the setter of multiImageView.images on my prepareForReuse
