Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build, making it incompatible with Gradle 9.0.

You can use '--warning-mode all' to show the individual deprecation warnings and determine if they come from your own scripts or plugins.

For more on this, please refer to https://docs.gradle.org/8.10.2/userguide/command_line_interface.html#sec:command_line_warnings in the Gradle documentation.

Hi @sweebee

expo SDK 52 has enabled new architecture by default. Have you explicitly disabled it ?

Hi @tr3v3r,

Disabling newArchEnabled in app.json for Expo doesn’t seem to resolve the issue. Plus, I believe you might need to enable the new architecture manually.

Should be fixed in the 4.3.3.

I tested it with Expo and EAS Build, and it works. Thanks 💯 ❤️
