As always, thanks to you and your team for all of your hard work here. I just upgraded my app without any issues. I was wondering yesterday when SDK 39 would be here. Perfect timing!
Getting hard time upgrading bare workflow from 38 to 39, there is no clear instruction on how to do it :( , somehow fixed ios by changing Podfile, but no luck with android, Some or other expo module related errors are coming up, no idea what to change in android section :(
Found it, Need to change
android/build.gradle
Form
ext {
buildToolsVersion = "28.0.3"
minSdkVersion = 21
compileSdkVersion = 28
targetSdkVersion = 28
}
to
ext {
buildToolsVersion = "29.0.3"
minSdkVersion = 21
compileSdkVersion = 29
targetSdkVersion = 29
}
Sorry you got caught up in a wrinkle! We've updated the upgrade instructions to make sure this is smoother for other Bare workflow users, so thanks for pointing it out!
I literally just Googled "Expo SDK 39 release date" at 3am this morning. 🖤🖤🖤
Such good timing!
I spent quite a long time today finding a good alternative to scan barcodes on web!
But, after doing expo upgrade and getting no issues during that process, I still can't scan Barcodes on web. Is there anything extra I need to do?
Thank you for this!
Upgrading Expo managed workflow project is very easy now.
I tried to upgrade another project, which is bare workflow, for the first time. I had to struggle a day to upgrade react native, but it was not that difficult. Thanks.
Was waiting for this patiently and was a pleasant surprise to find it today!
Any word around a react-native-fast-image type component for the Image component??
It is on our radar! We have been working on a modern solution to image rendering, but it is not yet production-ready. 🙂
That is great news.
Just upgraded to 39, smooth and performant :D
I would like to ask, since expo is getting a lot of popularity. Before i start using it, how to optimize the app because i made a hello world. But the size is massive.
Hey Jenuel, this is a pretty good walkthrough about app sizes in Expo Managed generally, and also some pro tips for keeping them small:

wow thank you for the reply.. 😊😊
I cant make this work in Android, it fails with some expo-splash-screen error like this:
"no suitable method found for show(MainActivity,Splash Screen Image, boolean)"
Did you read the post? There is a Note that there are two known issues with the iOS and Android development clients for SDK 39; one related to a SplashScreen warning and one related to reloading projects by pressing 'r' twice.
Hey Gabriel, sorry to hear that. Are you still having this problem / can you provide a minimal reproducible example or clear instructions for how to repro? If so, we'd appreciate you open an issue on our github repo.
I love it!! Good work guys
Love the new Interactive notifications, this is perfect for the app I am currently building. Thank you!
🚀🚀🚀🚀
Thanks for yet another great upgrade experience!
After upgrading I can run my app in expo-client but when generating bundle for PlayStore I get the message Can't find variable: Expo. Is there any possibility this is related to SDK upgrade?
