expo: [expo 43] Fatal Exception: Unable to pause activity

Summary

I’m having crashes on Crashlytics after upgrade to expo 43.0.2. I don’t know how to reproduce the crash, I have them on Crashlytics.

I’m in bare workflow.

hi there! we’ve published the expo packages to address the issue.

for sdk 44

please try to upgrade packages by yarn add expo@~44.0.4. supposedly that would also upgrade expo-modules-core. please make sure it is true by yarn why expo-modules-core and the returned version should be 0.6.4.

for sdk 43

please upgrade expo-modules-core by yarn add expo-modules-core@~0.4.10.

if this doesn’t work for you, please let us know. thanks for reporting this issue to us.

We are also using this override for working in pip mode:

    override fun onPause() {
        super.onPause()
        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O && isInPictureInPictureMode) {
            onResume()
        }
    }
