[wmonecke]

Describe the bug In the package.json stream-chat is locking to weird and outdated versions of expo packages. Why is this being done?

Hey @wmonecke, it seems like you are on the older version of expo and that might be the reason for the issue. Can you upgrade to 46.0.9 and see if you still face this problem.

You can follow our package.json of ExpoMessagingApp to check the version. I ran the same on this app and it was clear(no such errors).

Let's update the libs. that can be updated to the latest stable versions. Adding this to the backlog!
