i was faced near situations on two expo projects with two ios versions 14.4 and 16.4.
one is:
expo app starting and stoping without any conlsole error.
proeject was based on expo sdk 44, after my upgrade to SDK 49 ios was worked normaly.
second is:
expo sdk 48 app with this error:
Skipping Expo Go version validation in offline mode
Error: xcrun exited with non-zero code: 1
An error was encountered processing the command (domain=FBSOpenApplicationServiceErrorDomain, code=1):
Simulator device returned an error for the requested operation.
The request was denied by service delegate (SBMainWorkspace).
Underlying error (domain=FBSOpenApplicationServiceErrorDomain, code=1):
The request to open "host.exp.Exponent" failed.
The request was denied by service delegate (SBMainWorkspace).
i think problem is in the xcode. layer of react native and xCode.
only solution i was fond:
upgrading react native and expo to last versions
