As mentioned earlier, installing react-native-gesture-handler is the solution and the proper way to do this is expo install react-native-gesture-handler which installs the version that is supported by the SDK you’re using.

hey guys. This is how i resoled it.

  • Remove/uninstall that react-native-gesture-handler

  • Then install it again with expo, run expo install react-native-gesture-handler

other solutions, downgrade react-native-gesture-handler to ~1.3.0. take note of ~1.3.0.

It sow me the error Unable to resolve “react-native-gesture-handler” from “node_modules@react-navigation\native\src\Scrollables.js”

Did you run this command inside your project folder? expo install react-native-gesture-handler It is now necessary since Expo 34 since it’s not included by default in the Expo install.
