Hi,


I am building an app with expo, when the app is running on expo I have no issues but when I submit the app to `Apple Store Connect` and run it via `TestFlight` the app instant crash.



Those are my dependencies:




    "@react-native-community/masked-view": "0.1.5",
    "@react-navigation/native": "^5.0.7",
    "@react-navigation/stack": "^5.0.9",
    "expo": "~36.0.0",
    "expo-in-app-purchases": "^8.0.0",
    "expo-localization": "~8.0.0",
    "i18n-js": "^3.5.1",
    "react": "~16.9.0",
    "react-dom": "~16.9.0",
    "react-native": "https://github.com/expo/react-native/archive/sdk-36.0.0.tar.gz",
    "react-native-gesture-handler": "~1.5.0",
    "react-native-phone-input": "^0.2.4",
    "react-native-reanimated": "~1.4.0",
    "react-native-safe-area-context": "0.6.0",
    "react-native-screens": "2.0.0-alpha.12",
    "react-native-unimodules": "^0.7.0",
    "react-native-web": "~0.11.7",
    "react-redux": "^7.2.0",
    "redux": "^4.0.5",
    "redux-thunk": "^2.3.0",
    "sentry-expo": "^2.0.3"



I am submitting the build to `Apple Store Connect` running



```

expo build:ios

```



and then



```

expo upload:ios

```



The app is submitted without problems.



I added sentry to have more details on the crash but nothing, it seems to crash before sentry initialization.



If it helps I have some logs

Did you manage to figure it out? I'm facing the same issue right now. Been stuck on this for a week now. The app has been deployed on Play store and works fine on expo client but crashes on launch in testflight.

I used expo upgrade to update the app. I was on SDK39 and now I'm trying to launch SDK42 but my Testflight build crashes immediately. When running in the Expo Go app or the iOS Simulator it loads correctly, no errors.

Run expo build:android or expo build:ios instead of using eas. You can still use eas submit.

Anyone found any solution this yet? My app is working fine with Expo Go even in production mode. Build is also successfully. App installs fine. But it crashes while opening, everytime.
