The expo-constants isDevice recently became deprecated. Make sure to now use the Device library from Expo.
expo install expo-device
import * as Device from 'expo-device';
And replace Constants.isDevice with Device.isDevice
Hi, i'm trying to use @whiteclouds7 example but for some reason the notifications don't show when the app is in the background on a physical device, they do work properly on Xcode iphone Simulator, any clues on why this may be?
I have this exact same issue, the notifications register just fine on a non APK/bundle but the moment I bundle the app.. the scheduleNotificationsAsync
function just don't set the notification.
