React Native: "BlurView" was not found in the UIManager

Question

I am getting the below error when trying to implement @react-native-community/blur ( https://github.com/Kureev/react-native-blur ).

I've tried downgrading from 4.3.0 to 4.2.0 and then 4.1.0 with no success.

Is there a file potentially missing from the node_modules I can just add?

Or is there another library you would recommend using which is compatible with React Native and EXPO

Try to delete the./node_modules, ./ios/Pods and re-install it all again If your Mac's running Apple Silicon chip, use the folling command instead of just pod install: arch -x86_64 pod install In case after multiple attemps but it still doesn't work, I suggest using another way to make blurry UI with @shopify/react-native-skia. My project also ultilises this package in creating blurView. Hopefully my answer might help you.
