Android standalone app crashes

Expo SDK
1

Hello,

Today I did a little update on my app and generated the Android standalone build via expo-cli build:android. When I tried that build on my phone, the app crashed on start.

After that, I reverted the changes, did a new build and the new apk was still crashing. The app works fine in local and in Expo’s simulator.

I noticed that this new apk was way smaller (19MB vs 27MB) than the last apk that worked successfully, while both were generated with the same code and expo version.

This is the build that crashes: https://expo.io/artifacts/4b3e3eda-d681-4ae6-a6ee-2f40e66a4a84

Any idea why the build size is so different? Any tip on how to debug this crashing apk?

Thank-you

Huh, it does work on my Android test device (Nexus 5, Android 6.0.1)… On what device does the app crash?

I have just successfully reproduced the issue on Android 4.4 emulator (real devices with newer Androids worked all right). I’ll try to debug and fix it. :slightly_smiling_face:
