I have been trying to build my apk today but I always face this problem. After completing the build, i download it to my phone and i cannot open it. However, this was not the case 2-3 days ago. I had no difficulties or errors in Run expo doctor. I was able to download the apk to my device and test my app.
I am not really sure what to do and any help would be appreciated.
This is what I got after running npx expo doctor:
I managed to solve my problem. I used Android Studio's logcat feature and when I ran the app on the emulator I found the issue - it was related to admob. At this point, I dont need admob, so I deleted its folder from my project and everything was fine after this.
Running expo doctor usually ends up in flagging what dependency needs to be upgraded if the jump to automatically update it goes into the majors like in your case from 4 to 5.
Maybe try upgrading #expo/config-plugins by using expo upgrade or commands from your preferred package manager.
If that’s impossible due to other packages depending on the specific version, maybe consider adding overrides in your package.json. Here is a helpful article about that.
In my experience this may not be the only reason for the crash of the app. Try running the app consecutively about 3 or 4 times even if it crashes and I believe Android will prompt you to submit a bug report and maybe show you the call stack it failed at.
Let us know how it goes.

I'm getting this error when opening VS Code. Does anyone know what it means? I've done some research but didn't get any relevant information :(
I've tried creating a workflow to see if the error disappeared, but it didn't.
It seems that react native is asking for a workspace to start but is it asking that in the first place? Can I disable react native from running when opening VS Code?
The folder opened when the screenshot above was taken was the folder it opens by default, I believe it's the mac "home" personal folder, and I have a folder called "git" inside of it, with all projects.
Given the date of this posting (2023-02-07), you're probably on version 1.10.0 of the extension. This sounds like this bug report in the microsoft/vscode-react-native GitHub repo: [Bug] Extension activating when it shouldn't #1891.
A fix is coming in version 1.10.1.
But it is taking some time and has not been release yet at the time of this writing 2023-01-31:
we're facing some problems in the last release process, recently we're waiting for new publishing PAT access to republish 1.10.1 again, maybe it will publish on marketplace on next week. We have nightly version for extension in marketplace as well, maybe you can use it now.
For now, you can try installing the nightly version.
Also, note from the extension's readme documentation:
Before going any further make sure that you:
have a working React Native environment.
have the emulator utility available in your PATH if you're developing Android applications.
[...]
Got it, this annoying log came from React Native Tools extension. They specify the requirements in the docs:
In my case, I don't have a specific React Native environment or the emulator PATH is not right.
currently I'm migrating my react native app to expo bare workflow. Everything it's been fine so far, except for the following.
This may seem like a noob mistake, but I'm unable to use the Metro Bundler from Expo when I run my app from Xcode. Before, I could run from Xcode and the simulator would appear in the Metro Bundler with all it's logs, that was very useful.
I've been searching this for a couple days and the closest thing I've found to what I want, is using expo build:ios. The problem, it pops up a warning saying that if I'm not sure what I'm doing it's best to leave it as it is. It's a big application so I'm worried it might lead to errors, therefore I didn't do it.
If anyone knows for sure if this command is what I'm looking for, or has a better suggestion, it would be much appreciated. Thank you.
[EDIT]
To be more specific, I don't mean using the Expo Go app. I mean a standalone app (I'm not sure if this is the correct term for it). Thank you!!
expo build:ios is used for building an app bundle for your application. This is used when you want to publish your application on the store and that is why it asks for credentials of developer account on the iOS.
If you just want to run your app and check then you should use expo start. This will start the Metro Bundler for you and then you can run your application on your device scanning the QR code that would appear there.
I am using expo 34 and I am tried with 32,33 and 31.
It works when I run it with Expo client on Ios Simulator but
In the "this.props.navigation.navigate" commands, the program freezes and the cpu rises.
I'm not getting a mistake either.
I have the same problem with Android tests.
Expo client version 2.12.1
I tried it separately on Windows and Apple operating systems to solve this problem, but the problem still persisted.
Not: In the meantime, the application I am talking about is now online.
I mean, he was definitely working before, but I can't even test him now.
You need to install that in your project.
npm install react-navigation --save
Also you need to pass in the view name. For example:
this.props.navigation.navigate('ViewName');
I use react-native with actual version and have tried to create a simple project. But while trying to create it by using
expo init AwesomeProject
the whole process hangs.
I have tried to look for a solution by searching on the internet but without any luck.
The error could be seen in the following screenshot:
That error generally means that a file is being accessed by two different things at 'around' the same time. And 90% of those times it is because of an anti-virus or similar.
Its a permission error, so my advice, try to do it after a fresh reboot and boot the powershell as admin, disable antivirus etc..
If still does not work reinstall nodejs/npm.
I had the same experience. The project gets created using React-native. When you try to run it, the 'Metro' interface comes up. There is an android phone on the USB drive which has previously been used to run Android Studio created projects successfully. However, on the command shell the app hangs in Metro.
While trying to run the project from Android Studio snow cat, there are build errors (red) in the App manifest file and there is this exception.
Build failed due to java.lang.NullPointerException
Installed expo-cli (C:\Reactive-native>npm install -g expo-cli). The app fails to run and hangs on the connected Android phone(Samsung 21) using the Expo Go client. This client has no problem having been tested in Snackbar.
I have a question in the Expo forum and probably someone will answer!
I am a very new app developer, first job out of university and I'm working on a react-native app. My bosses have done some work on the app and then returned it to me. They added a node module called react-native-google-place-picker. And now I cannot get the app to compile and run on my emulator. It was working last week when I sent my work to them and they continued piecing all the devs work together.
Here is my console when I run react-native run-android, I am using Android studio emulator. I have been working on this app for a couple of weeks and been able to compile and test the app without any major issues but this one has me stumped.
Image of Error during compile:
Try going into the RNGooglePlacePickerNode.java, and comment out the override statement.
