Hey @bonobomagno - I think I experienced the same problem as you recently, and I solved it by adding await Font.loadAsync({ 'Material Icons': require('@expo/vector-icons/fonts/MaterialIcons.ttf')}) to componentDidMount of my root component. Could you give that a try and let us know if that fixes things for you? We’re not quite sure why it isn’t working out of the box right now, but we’re working on it!
