Reproduction link

Device

iPhone 13 PRO running Expo Go v2.29.6

Browser & Version

Steps to reproduce

step 1: Download and extract the app
step 2: cd into the extracted app and run npm install
step 3: run npm run start
step 4: scan the generated QR code to load the app in Expo (iOS)
step 5: app should load and fail at the splash screen with the error
ERROR Invariant Violation: Tried to register two views with the same name RNCMaskedView, js engine: hermes
ERROR Invariant Violation: "main" has not been registered. This can happen if:

• Metro (the local dev server) is run from the wrong folder. Check if Metro is running, stop it and restart it in the current project.
• A module failed to load due to an error and AppRegistry.registerComponent wasn't called., js engine: hermes

What is expected?

To successfully load the demo app using expo

What is actually happening?

After runing npm run start, I get a QR code to scan, I scan successfully, loads the app and splash screen but fails with the errors

Same error here

Not sure how I fixed it, but I think I moved over to yarn

Solution of yarn over npm worked for me as well.

I have no idea about yarn, but I did

cd project_dir
yarn install
yarn expo start

I got error

node:internal/errors:478
ErrorCaptureStackTrace(err);

And please, don't make things complicated, please fix the issue with npm. We buy template reduce stress.
Making us fixing bugs stress out again.

Try, it works.

npm install --legacy-peer-deps

Don't npx expo-doctor later or update packages
