Expo Push Notifications: “Error: Couldn't get GCM token on device.”

Question

I'm trying to receive push notifications with my Expo app, but at this line, the aforementioned error is thrown:

token = await Notifications.getExpoPushTokenAsync();

I already tried:

• setting up a FireBase account and linking the server API key with expo push:android:upload --api-key <token>
• downloading the google-services.json , linking it in app.json and making sure that android.package is set to the correct value
• logging into my expo account with expo login
• upgrading Expo to the newest version
• building the app and running it as a standalone app on a physical device

Unfortunately, nothing worked and I'm running out of ideas. Any suggestions?

Okay, I just solved it by upgrading Expo to version 3.17.24 .
