When the user wants to set up, improve, or audit analytics tracking and measurement. Also use when the user mentions "set up tracking," "GA4," "Google Analytics," "conversion tracking," "event tracking," "UTM parameters," "tag manager," "GTM," "analytics implementation," "tracking plan," "how do I measure this," "track conversions," "attribution," "Mixpanel," "Segment," "are my events firing," or "analytics isn't working." Use this whenever someone asks how to know if something is working or wants to measure marketing results. For A/B test measurement, see ab-test-setup.

Software Mansion's best practices for audio in React Native using react-native-audio-api. Covers audio playback (buffer sources, oscillators, streaming), recording (file, callback, graph), audio effects (gain, filters, delay, convolver, panner, waveshaper), real-time analysis and visualization, audio worklets (custom synthesis, UIRuntime/AudioRuntime), system integration (sessions, interruptions, permissions), and testing. Trigger on: react-native-audio-api, AudioContext, AudioRecorder, AudioBuffer, AudioBufferSourceNode, AudioBufferQueueSourceNode, OscillatorNode, StreamerNode, GainNode, BiquadFilterNode, DelayNode, ConvolverNode, StereoPannerNode, WaveShaperNode, AnalyserNode, AudioParam, AudioManager, PlaybackNotificationManager, RecordingNotificationManager, WorkletNode, WorkletSourceNode, WorkletProcessingNode, audio playback, record audio, microphone, waveform, audio visualization, audio streaming, audio worklet, or any React Native feature that captures, processes, or emits sound.
Software Mansion's best practices for gestures in React Native apps using React Native Gesture Handler. Use when implementing tap, pan, pinch, rotation, swipe, long press, fling, hover, drag, or any touch interaction. Trigger on: 'gesture handler', 'GestureDetector', 'tap gesture', 'pan gesture', 'pinch gesture', 'rotation gesture', 'long press', 'fling', 'hover gesture', 'swipe', 'pinch to zoom', 'drag', 'touch handling', 'Pressable', 'RectButton', 'Swipeable', 'DrawerLayout', 'VirtualGestureDetector', or any request to handle user touch input in a React Native app.

Beta versions use .preview suffix (e.g., 55.0.0-preview.2), published under @next tag.
Check if latest is beta: https://exp.host/--/api/v2/versions (look for -preview in expoVersion)
npx expo install expo@next --fix # install beta
npx expo install expo@latest
npx expo install --fix
Run diagnostics: npx expo-doctor
Clear caches and reinstall
npx expo export -p ios --clear
rm -rf node_modules .expo
watchman watch-del-all
First check if ios/ and android/ directories exist in the project. If neither directory exists, the project uses Continuous Native Generation (CNG) and native projects are regenerated at build time — skip this section and "Clear caches for bare workflow" entirely.
If upgrading requires native changes:
npx expo prebuild --clean
This regenerates the ios and android directories. Ensure the project is not a bare workflow app before running this command.
These steps only apply when ios/ and/or android/ directories exist in the project:
cd ios && pod install --repo-updatenpx expo run:ios --no-build-cachecd android && ./gradlew clean"experiments": { "reactCompiler": true } to app.json — it's stable and recommendedapp.json to let Expo manage it automaticallypackage.json: @babel/core, babel-preset-expo, expo-constants.| Old Package | Replacement |
|---|---|
expo-av | expo-audio and expo-video |
expo-permissions | Individual package permission APIs |
@expo/vector-icons | expo-symbols (for SF Symbols) |
AsyncStorage | expo-sqlite/localStorage/install |
expo-app-loading | expo-splash-screen |
| expo-linear-gradient | experimental_backgroundImage + CSS gradients in View |
When migrating deprecated packages, update all code usage before removing the old package. For expo-av, consult the migration references to convert Audio.Sound to useAudioPlayer, Audio.Recording to useAudioRecorder, and Video components to VideoView with useVideoPlayer.
Check if package.json has excluded packages:
{
"expo": { "install": { "exclude": ["react-native-reanimated"] } }
}
Exclusions are often workarounds that may no longer be needed after upgrading. Review each one.
Check if there are any outdated patches in the patches/ directory. Remove them if they are no longer needed.
autoprefixer isn't needed in SDK +53. Remove it from dependencies and check postcss.config.js or postcss.config.mjs to remove it from the plugins list.postcss.config.mjs in SDK +53.Remove redundant metro config options:
experimentalImportSupport is enabled by default in SDK +54.EXPO_USE_FAST_RESOLVER=1 is removed in SDK +54.Since SDK 55, users can opt-in to use Hermes engine v1 for improved runtime performance. This requires setting useHermesV1: true in the expo-build-properties config plugin, and may require a specific version of the hermes-compiler npm package. Hermes v1 will become a default in some future SDK release.
The new architecture is enabled by default, the app.json field "newArchEnabled": true is no longer needed as it's the default. Expo Go only supports the new architecture as of SDK +53.
