Expo (React Native)

Exporting an iOS simulator build from Expo

1. Modify the build profile in eas.json to add a waldo-ios profile like the following.

{
  "build": {
    "waldo-ios": {
      "ios": {
        "simulator": true
      }
    },
    "production": {}
  }
}

2. Run the eas build command with that profile.

eas build -p ios --profile waldo-ios
# ✔ Build finished
# 🍎 iOS app:
# https://expo.dev/artifacts/eas/kYnbyzM6fHVmd9ytUZyN3b.tar.gz

3. Download the ‘.tar.gz’ file and extract it. You can upload the resulting ‘.app’ file on Waldo!
