I’ve gone on to fix my issue, and move my old SDK 18.0.0 to the now updated 32.0.0 sdk. My app successfully builds on android and am ready to relaunch there, but im running into an issue trying to build the ios version. This is the error message I got:

I’m not sure what’s going on here, but it made me wonder about something else. When I initially launched on the ios marketplace, there was an issue with the app description so it was taken down a long time ago. I fixed the description but never attempted to relaunch because I wanted to make other updates before i tried another launch. The original version of this app on the itunes store was put on there/removed around 2 years ago. When I tried building it 2 years ago, I would have selected the option to let expo handle all my certs. Shouldn’t it be pulling those old certs? Or does it need to create new ones because its been so long?
Thank you for your help! I’m still running into an issue but I think im closer to getting this situation resolved.
So I tried that by running build:ios -c but I ran into this issue with ‘multiple profiles found with the name of’ and it has my apps bundle id.
$ expo build:ios -c

It looked like it pulled my old app. Should I have said to reuse Apple Distribution Certificate from the app when it prompted that? I only have one app total and this is it.
I just tried selecting the option to reuse the apple distribution certificate from another app, but it gave me the following error when it tried to build.

I’ve looked around a bit and the only potential solution to get this working is to go into my apple developer account, delete all the expired certs, and try build:ios -c again?
Yeah, that’s what I would recommend. Sometimes the automated process fails in which case going in manually and starting off with a clean slate is a good idea.
