Hi,
I have a project using SDK 45, the app was working fine but this week the app crash when start to load.
I tried to run the application on development environment and I can see the App is crashing regarding:

None of these files exist:
  * node_modules/react-native/Libraries/Components/DatePicker/DatePickerIOS(.native|.native.ts|.ts|.native.tsx|.tsx|.native.js|.js|.native.jsx|.jsx|.native.json|.json)
  * node_modules/react-native/Libraries/Components/DatePicker/DatePickerIOS/index(.native|.native.ts|.ts|.native.tsx|.tsx|.native.js|.js|.native.jsx|.jsx|.native.json|.json)```

Hi @dealseal

That’s weird because as far as I know DatePickerIOS and DatePickerAndroid were merged into RNDateTimePicker long before Expo SDK 45 came out.

See the migration guide here:

github.com

react-native-datetimepicker/datetimepicker/blob/master/docs/migration.md

## Migration from the older components

`RNDateTimePicker` is the new common name used to represent the old versions of iOS and Android.

On Android, open picker modals will update the selected date and/or time if the prop `value` changes. For example, if a HOC holding state, updates the `value` prop. Previously the component used to close the modal and render a new one on consecutive calls.

### DatePickerIOS

- `initialDate` is deprecated, use `value` instead.

  ```js
  // Before
  <DatePickerIOS initialValue={new Date()} />
  ```

  ```js
  // Now
  <RNDateTimePicker value={new Date()} />
  ```

yep, I’m experiencing the same

Hi @sbv

Follow the migration guide I linked to above.

Thats weird, cause I am doing what the migration guide says.
And I would probably get type errors if I used the component itself wrongly

Please post the dependencies and devDependencies from package.json?

Facing the same issue and I’m on SDK47. I’ve noticed that the file node_modules/react-native/Libraries/Components/DatePicker/DatePickerIOS that is looking for it is actually named DatePickerIOS.ios.js - maybe it’s not finding it due to the extra “.ios” extension

Dear Maxaquilino,

I would like to express my gratitude towards your participation in the sharing of your extensive experience and refined observation pertaining to the obstacle that you are presently facing. From what I gather, it seems that your explanation is highly plausible and logical as the addition of “.ios” has apparently caused the problem to arise.

In order to rectify this perplexing issue, it would be highly recommended to attempt to rename the file and see whether it helps alleviate the situation. I would be immensely obliged if you could keep me updated on any possible solution that you may come across.

With Sincerest Thanks,

Warmest Regards.
