I build app using Expo and discovered that the Android version of my app is crashing right after launch (iOS version is working). I reproduced this by launching “npx expo start –no-dev –minify” but in normal dev mode app is working.
Console is silent, only warning which I see in Expo Go is “new NativeEventEmitter() was called…” but I can’t read it all, it’s cut in half and it’s not possible to open this warning and see details.

I updated dependencies (below) and tried debug with Sentry but it seems that bug occurs before App.tsx is launched because I didn’t log anything.

Can you help me what is going on and why Expo isn’t logging any errors?

Expo Doctor Diagnostics:

✔ Check Expo config for common issues
✔ Check package.json for common issues
✔ Check native tooling versions
✔ Check dependencies for packages that should not be installed directly
✔ Check for common project setup issues
✔ Check npm/ yarn versions
✔ Check for issues with metro config
✔ Check Expo config (app.json/ app.config.js) schema
✔ Check for legacy global CLI installed locally
✔ Check that native modules do not use incompatible support packages
✔ Check that packages match versions required by installed Expo SDK
✔ Check that native modules use compatible support package versions for installed Expo SDK
