Feature Requests

Right now, the latest version of Expo is 54.0.25 The tip of main branch, however, is on 54.0.8 I would like to test a PR for a bugfix that is opened against main , but I am having an absolute nightmare of a time trying to install Expo version 54.0.8. npx expo-doctor and npx expo install --check both seem to only work for the latest version (patch? minor? not sure), and so it is nearly impossible to coordinate all of my dependencies for 54.0.8 to test the bugfix in the PR as desired.

Currently, when using Expo, I have to manually add numerous folders to the .gitignore file. It would be convenient if Expo could automatically place all the temporary assets within the .cache folder, which is commonly used and ignored by most repositories by default. ```.gitignore **/.expo/ **/ios/ **/android/ **/web-build/ **/expo-env.d.ts * /.metro-health-check .orig. *.jks *.p8 *.p12 *.key *.mobileprovision .kotlin/ ```

We run multiple projects & versions, we have to sometimes upload them manually, first time with app submission, but also testing. Naming them & version would make it easier to see which build belongs to which version & project.

https://github.com/expo/expo/discussions/41065#discussioncomment-15060704 i keep getting this error Error: Call to function 'ExpoHaptics.performHapticsAsync' has been rejected. → Caused by: A haptics engine is not available on this device would be nice to have a way to check if it's available before calling the method.

Support for React Native MacOS apps in the SDK, including prebuild. I know some progress has been made, but other parts of it have stalled or been deprioritized, so gauging community support seems key to understanding its relative importance. Related to but distinct from https://expo.canny.io/feature-requests/p/support-for-react-native-windows-apps and https://expo.canny.io/feature-requests/p/support-for-ios-marzipanproject-catalyst-apps-that-can-run-on-macos The same as https://github.com/expo/expo/discussions/22273 (the top voted discussion topic) but recreated here in Canny, where feature requests are supposed to live.

When I call Sharing.shareAsync and cancel it, I can not detect if it was canceled or the file was downloaded successfully

I'm streaming videos from S3 using signed urls that expire after 1 hour. So after 1h the client would refetch the same video, as the previous signed url is not accessible any longer, which could be avoided, if I could use the S3 key or base url as a cache key instead of the full url.

Currently there is no native support for iOS Toolbar. With iOS 26 the toolbar got significant overhaul and now became very useful. This could be part of Expo UI - Swift UI or as a separated module. Ref: https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/toolbars

React has this feature, by running : react-native init --version="react-native@0.36.0" MyNewApp You can specify which version you'd like
