Crash on start react-native after upgrade expo to 46 on old ios versions 12.4 13.1

Expo SDK

After upgrade expo from 44 to 46, I got exception on old ios versions (iphone 6) build with release scheme. On ios >=15.4 or with debug (metro load) scheme it’s normal start.

The problem was in metro.config.js with minificator. To solve it add target option.

config.transformer.minifierPath = require.resolve('metro-minify-esbuild');
  config.transformer.minifierConfig = {
     target: 'es6', // <-- For old ios
  };
