Setup problem

I am trying to setup react-native-ble-plx to my expo app but I am getting this error:

ERROR  Invariant Violation: `new NativeEventEmitter()` requires a non-null argument.

Steps to Reproduce

import React, { useState } from "react";
import {
  View,
  Text,
  TouchableOpacity,
  StyleSheet,
  Button,
  ImageBackground,
  Image,
} from "react-native";
import { COLORS, SIZES, assets, styles1, styles2 } from "../constants";
import { Avatar } from "@rneui/themed";
import { BleManager } from "react-native-ble-plx";
import DeviceCard from "../components/DeviceCard";


const Home = ({ navigation }) => {
  const manager = React.useRef();
  manager.current = new BleManager({
    restoreStateIdentifier: 'com.baucapstone.smartdoorlock',
    restoreStateFunction: () => {},
    allowDuplicate: false,
  });

  var devices = [];

  const [isLoading, setIsLoading] = useState(false);

  const scanDevices = () => {
    setIsLoading(true);

    manager.startDeviceScan(null, null, (error, scannedDevice) => {
      if (error) {
        console.warn(error);
      }
      if (scannedDevice && !devices.find((dev) => dev.id === scannedDevice.id)) {
        console.log(scannedDevice)
        devices = [
          ...devices,
          {id: scannedDevice.id, name: scannedDevice.name},
        ];
      }
    });

    setTimeout(() => {
      manager.stopDeviceScan();
      setIsLoading(false);
    }, 5000);
  };
