> The Expo Go app is a great tool to get started. It exists to help developers quickly get projects off the ground, experiment with ideas (such as on Snack), and share their work with minimal friction. Expo Go makes this possible by including a feature-rich native runtime made up of every module in the Expo SDK, so all you need to do to use a module is install the package and reload your app. <br/><br/> The tradeoff is that Expo Go does not allow you to add custom native code. You can only use native modules built into the Expo SDK. Many great libraries are available outside of the Expo SDK, and you may even want to build your native library. You can leverage these libraries with development builds or using prebuild to generate native projects, or both. You can also continue using EAS Build to release your app as no changes are required.

A key part of Amplify's React Native strategy going forward is to reduce our reliance on third-party native modules. While third-party native modules are a mainstay of the React Native ecosystem, we believe the flexibility of building more native modules tailored to the specific needs of our customers will allow us to most quickly deliver value to them in the long run. As a result of now requiring native modules not available through the Expo SDK, Expo Go is not supported in v6 but you should be able to use Expo.
